COMMENTS
If the prime k-tuple conjecture is true, then lim inf A217926(n)/(2n) exists, and has the value 3.305219...
If lim sup A217926(n)/(2n) exists, it appears to have a value less than 3.32.
FORMULA
The a(n) are the decimal digits of K = 3.305219..., where K is the solution of exp(2/K) = sum(exp(-g/K)), and where the g are the terms of the greedy sequence of prime offsets (A135311).
