COMMENTS

It is conjectured that for n > 0, a(n) > 0. See also A190661. [John W. Nicholson, May 18 2011]

FORMULA

a(n) = pi(n*(n+1)/2)-pi(n*(n-1)/2).

a(n) equals the number of occurrences of n+1 in A057062. [Esko Ranta, Jul 29 2011]

EXAMPLE

Write the numbers 1, 2, ... in a triangle with n terms in the n-th row; a(n) = number of primes in n-th row.

Triangle begins

1             (0 primes)

2  3          (2 primes)

4  5  6       (1 prime)

7  8  9 10    (1 prime)

11 12 13 14 15 (2 primes)
