COMMENTS

This is the 3-almost prime analogue of what A113784 is for semiprimes and what A031131 is for primes. The the minimum values in the sequence are 2 because we have, for example, the 3 consecutive 3-almost primes 170, 171, 172, so a(39) = A014612(41) - A014612(39) = 172 - 170 = 2. Equivalently, there are 2 consecutive 1 values of A114403 (3-almost prime gaps; first differences of A014612). This happens for elements of A113789 (numbers n such that n, n+1 and n+2 are 3-almost primes).

FORMULA

a(n) = A014612(n+2) - A014612(n).

EXAMPLE

a(1) = 10 because the difference between the first and third 3-almost primes is A014612(3) - A014612(1) = 18 - 8 = 10.

a(2) = A014612(4) - A014612(2) = 20 - 12 = 8.

a(3) = A014612(5) - A014612(3) = 27 - 18 = 9.

CROSSREFS

Cf. A014612, A031131, A067813, A113784, A113789, A114403.
