%N Number of ways to write n = p+q with p prime or practical, and q-4, q, q+4 all practical
%C Conjecture: a(n)>0 for all n>8.
%C Zhi-Wei Sun also made some similar conjectures, below are few examples.
%C (1) Each integer n>3 can be written as p+q with p prime or practical, and q and q+2 both practical.
%C (2) Any integer n>12 can be written as p+q with p prime or practical, and q-8, q, q+8 all practical.
%C (3) The interval [n,2n) contains a practical number p with p-n a triangular number.
%C (4) Any integer n>1 can be written as x^2+y (x,y>0) with 2x and 2xy both practical.
%C Note that if x>=y>0 with x practical then xy is also practical.

%e a(11)=1 since 11=3+8 with 3 prime, and 4, 8, 12 all practical.
%e a(12)=1 since 12=4+8 with 4, 8, 12 all practical.
