%N a(n) is the smallest number such that a(n)+1 is a prime and the largest power of 2 which divides it is 2^n.
%F a(n) = A057775(n) - 1. - _Sean A. Irvine_, Jun 27 2022
%e The 4th term is 40. It is divisible by 8,40+1=41 is prime. Smaller multiples of 8 are not suitable because e.g. albeit 8|16 and 16+1=17 is a prime, but the largest power of 2 which divides 16 is not 8, it is 16. So 16 is not the 3rd, it is the 4th term here.
%Y Cf. A000040, A006093, A057775, A057776.
