%N Averages y of twin prime pairs that satisfy y = x^2 + x - 2.

%C The above equation is one of a family of twin prime average-generating quadratics y = x^2 + x - c, where c can be any even integer not of the form 6d + 4.

%C For f(x) = x^2 + x - c, f(-x) = f(x-1).

%C If c = 0, the positive x that satisfy y = x^2 + x - c are A088485.
