%N First occurrence of n in A100002; the least k such that A100002(k) = n.
%C Also, the first number that is crossed off at stage n in the Flavius sieve (A000960). - _N. J. A. Sloane_, Nov 21 2004
%C The sequence appears to grow roughly like 0.7825*n^2. Note that for n>2, the second occurrence of n in A100002 is at a(n)+1.
%C Equals main diagonal of triangle A101224, which is defined by the process starting with column 1: A101224(n,1) = n^2-n+1 for n>=1 and continuing with: A101224(n,k) = (n-k+1)*floor( (A101224(n,k-1) - 1)/(n-k+1) ) for k>1 until k=n. I.e., a(n) = A101224(n,n). - _Paul D. Hanna_, Dec 01 2004
