%N Primes of the form floor(2*Pi*n/(e*log(n))).

%C An entropy power of white noise function with N=1/log(n).

%C Function is based on asymptotic form of distribution: PrimePi[n]--> n/log(n) Function misses the first three primes {2,3,5}, but is pretty good after that.

%C It is easy to see due to the slow growth of the function that the sequence is precisely the primes greater than 5. [_Charles R Greathouse IV_, Aug 21 2011]
