a(n) = k = pi(p_k) = pi(R_n) That is, p_k is the n-th Ramanujan prime, R_n the k-th prime. pi(R_n) where pi is the prime number counting function and R_n is the n-th Ramanujan prime.

FORMULA
|
a(n) = rho(n) in the paper by Sondow, Nicholson, and Noe.
prime(a(n)) = R_n = A104272(n).
|
|
|
EXAMPLE
|
The 10th Ramanujan Prime is 97. Pi(97) = 25. So, a(10) = 25.
