Year-end appeal: Please make a donation to the OEIS Foundation to support ongoing development and maintenance of the OEIS. We are now in our 61st year, we have over 378,000 sequences, and we’ve reached 11,000 citations (which often say “discovered thanks to the OEIS”).

%e a(1) = 2 because 1 is not prime and the first prime is 2.

%e a(2) = 1 because 2 is prime and the first nonprime is 1.

%e a(3) = 4 because 3 is prime and the second nonprime is 4.

%e a(4) = 3 because 4 is not prime and the second prime is 3.

%e a(5) = 6 because 5 is prime and the third nonprime is 6.
