%N Numbers k for which (k!-3)/3 is prime.

%C Corresponding primes (k!-3)/3 are in A139057.

%C a(13) > 10000. The PFGW program has been used to certify all the terms up to a(12), using a deterministic test which exploits the factorization of a(n) + 1. - _Giovanni Resta_, Mar 28 2014

%C 98166 is a member of the sequence but its index is not yet determined. The interval where sieving and tests were not run is [60000,90000]. - _Serge Batalov_, Feb 24 2015
