%N Primes of the form 4*k^2 + 4*k + 59.

%C From _Peter Bala_, Apr 18 2018: (Start)

%C Let P(n) = 4*n^2 + 4*n + 59. The polynomial 1/2*P(n-1/2) = 2*n^2 + 29 has prime values for n from 0 to 28. See A007641. Also P(n-14) = 4*n^2 - 108*n + 787 is prime for the 28 consecutive values of n from 0 to 27.

%C The sequence of 28 values of the polynomial 4*P((n-2)/4) = n^2 + 232 for n from -1 to 26 is [233, 2^3*29, 233, 2^2*59, 241, 2^3*31, 257, 2^2*67, 281, 2^3*37, 313, 2^2*83, 353, 2^3*47, 401, 2^2*107, 457, 2^3*61, 521, 2^2*139, 593, 2^3*79, 673, 2^2*179, 761, 2^3*101, 857, 2^2*227], and consists of 7 groups of 4 numbers of the form p_1, 2^3*p_2, p_3, 2^2*p_4, where the p's are prime numbers.
