FORMULA
a(n) = [x^2] Product_{k=3..n+1} (x^prime(k) + 1/x^prime(k)). - Ilya Gutkovskiy, Jan 26 2024
EXAMPLE
a(7) counts these 3 solutions: {3, -5, 7, 11, -13, 17, -19}, {3, 5, -7, -11, 13, 17, -19}, {3, 5, -7, 11, -13, -17, 19}.
MATHEMATICA
{f, s} = {2, 1}; Table[t = Map[Prime[# + f - 1] &, Range[2, z]]; Count[Map[Apply[Plus, #] &, Map[t # &, Tuples[{-1, 1}, Length[t]]]], s - Prime[f]], {z, 22}]
(* A022898, a(n) = number of solutions of "sum = s" using Prime(f) to Prime(f+n-1) *)
n = 7; t = Map[Prime[# + f - 1] &, Range[n]]; Map[#[[2]] &, Select[Map[{Apply[Plus, #], #} &, Map[t # &, Map[Prepend[#, 1] &, Tuples[{-1, 1}, Length[t] - 1]]]], #[[1]] == s &]] (* the 3 solutions of using n=7 primes; Peter J. C. Moses, Oct 01 2013 *)
PROG
(PARI) padbin(n, len) = {if (n, b = binary(n), b = [0]); while(length(b) < len, b = concat(0, b); ); b; }
a(n) = {nbs = 0; for (i = 2^(n-1), 2^n-1, vec = padbin(i, n); if (sum(k=1, n, if (vec[k], prime(k+1), -prime(k+1))) == 1, nbs++); ); nbs; } \\ Michel Marcus, Sep 30 2013
