COMMENTS
| Define a 2-based sum S(n) = sum_{i=0..n} (2- (-1)^i*i) = 2*n-(-1)^n*A152832(n).
a(n) is this sum evaluated at A141468(n).

FORMULA
| a(n)=sum_{x=0..nth nonprime}2-x*(-1)^x. - Juri-Stepan Gerasimov (2stepan(AT)rambler.ru), Jul 28 2009

EXAMPLE
| a(1)=2-0*(-1)^0=2. a(2)=2-0*(-1)^0+2-1*(-1)^1=2+3=5.
a(3)=2-0*(-1)^0+2-1*(-1)^1+2-2*(-1)^2+2-3*(-1)^3+2-4*(-1)^4=2+3+0+5-2=8.
