A062575 a(n) = maximum over m of the size of the largest subset of pairwise relatively prime numbers in {m+1, m+2, ..., m+n}. 1

%N a(n) = maximum over m of the size of the largest subset of pairwise relatively prime numbers in {m+1, m+2, ..., m+n}.

%e a(5) = 4, since {1,2,3,4,5} contains the subset {1,2,3,5} which is pairwise relatively prime and it is impossible for 5 consecutive positive integers to be pairwise relatively prime.

%Y Cf. A062571.
