COMMENTS
| Isolated primes are primes that are not twin prime components. Define I(n) to be the number of isolated primes <= n. Given that Pi(n) -> infinity and I(n) -> infinity as n -> infinity, proving that pi(n) always grows by an ever so slight factor k>1 than I(n), then we will have infinity_Pi(n) - infinity_I(n) = infinity. So twin primes would be infinite in extent.

FORMULA
| a(n) = A006880(n) - 2*A007508(n) + 1
|
|
|
EXAMPLE
| The 10 isolated primes < 10^2 are 2,23,37,47,53,67,79,83,89,97 so 10 is the second entry in the table.
