%N Sum of staircase twin primes according to the rule: top * bottom - next top.
%C While there is multiplication and subtraction in the generation of this sequence, it is still called a sum because the arithmetic processes -,*,/ are derived from addition.
%F We list the twin primes in staircase fashion as in A135283. Then a(n) = tl(n) * tu(n) + (-tl(n+1)).
%F a(n) = A037074(n) -A001359(n+1). - _R. J. Mathar_, Sep 10 2016
