%N Smallest prime factor of 2^(8n) + 1.
%C The smallest prime factor of 2^(8n+k) + 1 does not depend on n if 0 < k < 8 (see Formula in A002586).

%F a(n) = A002586(8n) = A020639(2^(8n) + 1).
%F a(2^(k-3)) = A020639(A000215(k)) is the smallest prime factor of the k-th Fermat number 2^(2^k) + 1.
%e a(1) = 2^8 + 1 = 257 is the Fermat prime A019434(3).
%e a(2) = 2^16 + 1 = 65537 is the Fermat prime A019434(4).
