%N Sum of the first 10^n twin primes.

%C The Gcc/Gmp program is at the bottom of the page in the link. The page also

%C has the PARI bisection algorithms which give a very good approximation for the

%C n-th prime number and the n-th lower twin prime number. The first 5 terms can be

%C computed from the PARI script although 11556327260 takes 4 hours on a 2.53ghz

%C 2 gig ram p4.

%e The 10^0-th twin prime pair is (3,5). This adds up to 8, the first entry

%e in the sequence. The first 10^1 twin prime pairs are (3,5),(5,7),(11,13)

%e (17,19),(29,31),(41,43),(59,61),(71,73),(101,103),(107,109). This adds up to

%e 908, the second entry in the table.

%o (PARI) default(primelimit,4200000000)

%o for(j=0,4,print1(tws(10^j)","))

%o tws(n) = y=sum(x=1,n,twinl(x));(y+n)*2

%o twinl(n) = local(c, x); c=0;x=1;while(c<n,if(ispseudoprime(prime(x)+2),c++);

%o x++;);return(prime(x-1))

%Y Cf. A118552

%K nonn

%O 0,1
