%N Greatest prime < prime(n)/2.

%C The n-th prime appears A102820(n) times. - _Flávio V. Fernandes_, Apr 08 2021

%C A080191 lists the distinct terms of this sequence. - _Flávio V. Fernandes_, Jun 19 2021

%F a(n) = A151799(A000040(n)/2) for n >= 3. - _Wesley Ivan Hurt_, Nov 26 2020

%e Prime(3)/2 = 2.5, so a(3) = 2.
