%N Number of ways to write n as x+y with 0<x<=y and x^2+3xy+y^2 prime.

%C Conjecture: a(n)>0 for all n=2,3,4,...

%C It is known that any prime p = 1 or -1 (mod 5) can be written uniquely in the form x(p)^2+3x(p)y(p)+y(p)^2 with x(p)>y(p)>0.

%C Zhi-Wei Sun also conjectured that

%C (sum_{p<N, p=1,-1(mod 5)}x(p))

%C /(sum_{p<N, p=1,-1(mod 5)}y(p))

%C has the limit 1+sqrt(5) as N tends to the infinity.

%C These conjectures are similar to the ones mentioned in the comments in A218585.

%e For n=12 we have a(12)=1 since x^2+3x(12-x)+(12-x)^2 with 0<x<=6 is prime only when x=5.
