Comments

The data section gives all terms up to 10^10. There are eight more terms up to 3*10^15 (see b-file).

A is essentially (A007663(n) modulo A000040(n))/2 (see Crandall et al. (1997), p. 437). The choice of the bound for A is rather arbitrary and selecting a larger A will result in more terms in a specific interval. For any p there exist two values of A whose sum is p, except when p is in A001220, in which case A = 0.
