Previous name: Number of primes p such that prime(n) mod 2*p < prime(n).
Same as A055930, except for a(2). [Noticed by R. J. Mathar, Dec 15 2008, proved by Andrey Zabolotskiy, Oct 26 2017]
FORMULA
A079950(n, a(n) + 1) = prime(n).
Where defined, that is for n > 2, prime(a(n)) = A055377(prime(n)). - Peter Munn, Sep 18 2017
0 with partial sums of A217564. - David A. Corneth, Oct 26 2017 (found earlier by Peter Munn).
EXAMPLE
n = 6: prime(6) = 13 and 2, 3, 5 are less than 13/2, therefore a(6) = 3.
