%N The smallest possible nonnegative difference between the sum of the first n primes (A007504) and the sum of any number of the directly following and consecutive primes.

%C Conjecture: a(0)=0, a(2)=0 and a(532)=0 are the only zeros in the sequence. a(n) has been computed for primes < 10^10. - _Bob Andriesse_, Oct 07 2020

%e a(2) = 2 + 3 - 5 = 0;

%e a(3) = 2 + 3 + 5 - 7 = 3;

%e a(6) = 2 + 3 + 5 + 7 + 11 + 13 - (17 + 19) = 5.

%e a(532)=0 because A007504(733) = 2*A007504(532).
