A080841 Number of pairs (p,q) of (not necessarily consecutive) primes with q-p = 6 and q < 10^n. 3

%I #23 Feb 04 2024 09:03:55

%S 0,15,74,411,2447,16386,117207,879908,6849047,54818296,448725003,

%T 3741217498

%N Number of pairs (p,q) of (not necessarily consecutive) primes with q-p = 6 and q < 10^n.

%C Note that one has to be careful to distinguish between pairs of consecutive primes (p,q) with q-p = 6 (A031924), and pairs of primes (p,q) with q-p = 6 (A023201). Here we consider the latter, whereas A093738 considers the former. - _N. J. A. Sloane_, Mar 07 2021
