COMMENTS
Fernandez calls this the order of primeness of n.
a(A007097(n))=n, for any n >= 0. - Paul Tek, Nov 12 2013
When a nonoriented rooted tree is encoded as a Matula-Goebel number n, a(n) tells how many edges needs to be climbed up from the root of the tree until the first branching vertex (or the top of the tree, if n is one of the terms of A007097) is encountered. Please see illustrations at A061773. - Antti Karttunen, Jan 27 2014
Zero-based column index of n in the Kimberling-style dispersion table of the primes (see A114537). - Allan C. Wechsler, Jan 09 2024

FORMULA
a(n) = A049076(n)-1.
a(n) = if A049084(n) = 0 then 0 else a(A049084(n)) + 1. - Reinhard Zumkeller, Jul 14 2013
For all n, a(n) = A007814(A135141(n)) and a(A227413(n)) = A007814(n). Also a(A235489(n)) = a(n). - Antti Karttunen, Jan 27 2014
EXAMPLE
a(1) = 0 since 1 is not prime;
a(2) = a(prime(1)) = a(1) + 1 = 1 + 0 = 1;
a(3) = a(prime(2)) = a(2) + 1 = 1 + 1 = 2;
a(4) = 0 since 4 is not prime;
a(5) = a(prime(3)) = a(3) + 1 = 2 + 1 = 3;
a(6) = 0 since 6 is not prime;
a(7) = a(prime(4)) = a(4) + 1 = 0 + 1 = 1.
