COMMENTS

Primes are given in the order in which they arise for increasing n.

Polynomial generates 22 primes for 0 <= n <= 42, i.e. for n = 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 29, 30, 31, 32, 33, 34, 35, 36, 37, 38, 39, 40, 41, 42.

If the definition is replaced by " Numbers n of the form 47*k^2 - 1701*k + 10181 such that either n or -n is a prime" we get (essentially) A050267.
