%C It always has been one of the great mysteries of mathematics, that the superdiagonal sequence of A001177 consists of prime numbers A000057.

%C Here, regarding A214031 and A214032,there is the further conjecture that these two disjoint sequences are primes and roughly comparable in density. It isn't clear that these two sequences have a density, without appealing to the Riemann Hypothesis, but they are certainly close to one another in growing size.

%C Since these two sequences are disjoint, it is natural to take their union.

%o (PARI)

%o {b23(n)=local(t,m=1,s=[n]); if (n<2,0,while(1,

%o if(m%2,s=concat(s,2),s=concat(s,3));

%o t=contfracpnqn(concat(s,n));

%o t=contfrac(n*t[1,1]/t[2,1]);

%o if(t[1]<n^2||t[#t]<n^2,m++,break));m)};

%o To print the sequence a(n) to the screen,

%o for(i=1,500,if(b23(i)==i||b23(i)==i-2,

%o print1(i,", ")));
