%N Sums of successive sums of successive sums of successive primes.

%C If we consider the m-fold iterated "take sums of successive terms" operation acting on the primes, then for all m >= 1, the first term is always odd (and the only odd term); it is prime for m=1, 2, 4, 8, 21, 24, 27, 31, 40, 98,..., but not for m=3 (the present sequence).

%F Let f(n) = prime(n) + prime(n+1) f1(n) = f(n)+f(n+1) : SS of order 1 Then f2(n) = f1(n)+f1(n) : SS of order 2 is the general term of this sequence.

%F a(n) = A096277(n) + A096277(n+1). - _M. F. Hasler_, Jun 02 2017

%F a(n) = prime(n)+3*prime(n+1)+3*prime(n+2)+prime(n+3). - _Robert Israel_, Dec 28 2022

%e The first two terms of SS order 1 is 13 and 20. 13+20 = 33 the first term of the sequence.
