%C Least prime factor of A007908(n). For 1 < n <= 5000, a(n) < A007908(n), but this should fail infinitely often (assuming standard heuristics). - _Charles R Greathouse IV_, Apr 10 2014

%C From _Robert Israel_, Aug 28 2015: (Start)

%C a(n) = 2 iff n is even.

%C a(n) = 3 iff n == 3 or 5 (mod 6).

%C a(n) = 5 iff n == 25 (mod 30). (End)
