EXAMPLE

The two closest primes to 113 are 109 (difference = 4) and 107 (difference = 6). Both 109 and 107 are smaller than 113, so 113 is in the list.

MATHEMATICA

NextPrim[n_] := Block[{k = n + 1}, While[ !PrimeQ[k], k++ ]; k]; ps = {0, 0, 0, 1}; Do[ps = Drop[ps, 1]; ps = Append[ps, NextPrim[ ps[[ -1]]]]; If[ ps[[ -1]] - ps[[ -2]] > ps[[ -2]] - ps[[1]], Print[ ps[[ -2]]]], {n, 1, 330}]
