In the name, "nextprime(p)" stands for the smallest prime number that is greater than p.
Conjecture: a(n) > 0 for all integer n > 1.

EXAMPLE
|
For n=2, 2n=4, 2n+2=6. Both 4-2=2 and 6-nextprime(2)=6-3=3 are primes. This is the only case, so a(2)=1;
For n=3, 2n=6, 2n+2=8. Both 6-3=5 and 8-nextprime(3)=8-5=3 are primes. This is the only case, so a(3)=1;
...
For n=8, 2n=16, 2n+2=18. The following cases satisfy the definition:
1) 16-3=13, 18-nextprime(3)=18-5=13;
2) 16-5=11, 18-nextprime(5)=18-7=11;
3) 16-11=5, 18-nextprime(11)=18-13=5.
So a(8)=3;
...
For n=10, 2n=20, 2n+2=22. The following cases satisfy the definition:
1) 20-3=17, 22-nextprime(3)=22-5=17;
2) 20-7=13, 22-nextprime(7)=22-11=11;
3) 20-13=7, 22-nextprime(13)=22-17=5;
4) 20-17=3, 22-nextprime(17)=22-19=3.
So a(10)=4.
