A184829 a(n) = smallest k such that A000961(n+1) = A000961(n) + (A000961(n) mod k), or 0 if no such k exists. 3

%N a(n) = smallest k such that A000961(n+1) = A000961(n) + (A000961(n) mod k), or 0 if no such k exists.

%C a(n) is the "weight" of prime powers.

%C The decomposition of prime powers into weight * level + gap is A000961(n) = a(n) * A184831(n) + A057820(n) if a(n) > 0.

%e For n = 1 we have A000961(1) = 1, A000961(2) = 2; there is no k such that 2 - 1 = 1 = (1 mod k), hence a(1) = 0.

%e For n = 3 we have A000961(3) = 3, A000961(4) = 4; 2 is the smallest k such that 4 - 3 = 1 = (3 mod k), hence a(3) = 2.

%e For n = 24 we have A000961(24) = 49, A000961(25) = 53; 5 is the smallest k such that 53 - 49 = 4 = 49 mod k), hence a(24) = 5.
