Formula

a(n) = A046953(n) + A046954(n+1).

Example

a(1) = 6 + 4 = 10;
a(2) = 11 + 8 = 19;
a(3) = 13 + 9 = 22.

Maple

A046953 := proc(n) if n = 1 then 6 ; else for a from procname(n-1)+1 do if not isprime(6*a-1) then return a; end if; end do: end if; end proc:
A046954 := proc(n) if n = 1 then 0 ; else for a from procname(n-1)+1 do if not isprime(6*a+1) then return a; end if; end do: end if; end proc:
A173231 := proc(n) A046953(n)+A046954(n+1) ; end proc:
seq(A173231(n), n=1..120) ; # R. J. Mathar, May 02 2010

Mathematica

A046953:= Select[Range[250], !PrimeQ[6#-1] &];
A046954:= Select[Range[0, 250], !PrimeQ[6#+1] &];
