%N Numbers m such that (4^m + 17) / 3 is prime.

%C After 1, m is of the form 3*k+2. In fact, for m = 3*k or 3*k+1, 4^n+17 is divisible by 9 and 7, respectively. [_Bruno Berselli_, Aug 26 2015]

%C a(21) > 300000. - _Robert Price_, Apr 04 2017

%e 2 is in the sequence because (4^2+17)/3 = 11 is prime.

%e 5 is in the sequence because (4^5+17)/3 = 347 is prime.

%t Select[Range[0, 5000], PrimeQ[(4^# + 17)/3] &]

%o (Magma) [n: n in [0..1000] | IsPrime((4^n+17) div 3)];
