%N Sum of two integers when equal to the product of their prime-counting functions.

%C The sums are listed in increasing order. The only term with equal addends is a(2)= 16 = 8 + 8 = pi(8)^2, Indeed j=8 is the only solution to pi(j)^2 = 2*j, which is easily seen using pi(j) > j/log(j) for j>16.

%H Eric Weisstein's World of Mathematics, <a href="http://mathworld.wolfram.com/PrimeCountingFunction.html">Prime Counting Function</a>

%F Positive integers n such that n = pi(j) * pi(n-j) for some j.

%e 32 is a term because 32 = 10 + 22 = 4 * 8 = pi(10) * pi(22).

%t nn = 10^3; Select[Range@ nn, Function[k, IntegerQ@ SelectFirst[Range@ nn, k == PrimePi[#] PrimePi[k - #] &]]] (* Version 10, or *)
