%N Square array: row n gives the indices i for which prime(i+1) = prime(i) + 2n; read by falling antidiagonals.
%C It is conjectured that every positive integer except 1 occurs in the array.
%C From _M. F. Hasler_, Oct 19 2018: (Start)
%C The above conjecture is obviously true: the integer i appears in row (prime(i+1) - prime(i))/2.
%C Polignac's Conjecture states that all rows are of infinite length.
%C To ensure the sequence is well-defined in case the conjecture would not hold, we can use the convention that finite rows are continued by 0's. (End)
