COMMENTS
3 patterns for 8-tuplets: 11010011001011, 11011010011001 and v.v.
See A022011, A022012 and A022013 for the three different possible patterns. The sequence is conjectured to be infinite, although it is not even proved that there are infinitely many twin primes (p1, p2 = p1+2). - M. F. Hasler, May 02 2015
