%N Smallest prime in a sequence of n consecutive primes which add to a perfect square.

%C Essentially the same as A073887.

%e a(2)=17, because it is the smallest prime in a sequence of n=2 consecutive primes, which add to a perfect square, namely 17+19=36=6^2. The sums of earlier pairs, 2+3, 3+5, 5+7, 7+11 etc. fail to produces sums which are any perfect square.

%t Module[{prs=Prime[Range[3200]]},Table[First[SelectFirst[Partition[ prs, n,1],IntegerQ[ Sqrt[Total[#]]]&]],{n,2,52}]] (* The program uses the SelectFirst function from Mathematica version 10 *) (* _Harvey P. Dale_, Sep 06 2015 *)

%o (PARI) a(n) = {ip = 1; while (! issquare(sum(i=ip, ip+n-1, prime(i))), ip++); prime(ip);} \\ _Michel Marcus_, Jun 08 2014

%Y Cf. A132956, A132957.

%K easy,nonn

%O 2,1
