A059690 Number of distinct Cunningham chains of first kind whose initial prime (cf. A059453) <= 2^n. 1

%S 1,2,2,2,3,5,7,13,20,31,52,83,142,242,412,742,1308,2294,4040,7327,

%N Number of distinct Cunningham chains of first kind whose initial prime (cf. A059453) <= 2^n.

%e a(11)-a(10) = 21 means that between 1024 and 2048 exactly 21 primes introduce Cunningham chains: {1031, 1049, 1103, 1223, 1229, 1289, 1409, 1451, 1481, 1499, 1511, 1559, 1583, 1601, 1733, 1811, 1889, 1901, 1931, 1973, 2003}.

%e Their lengths are 2, 3 or 4. Thus the complete chains spread over more than one binary size-zone: {1409, 2819, 5639, 11279}. The primes 1439 and 2879 also form a chain but 1439 is not at the beginning of that chain, 89 is.

%t c = 0; k = 1; Do[ While[k <= 2^n, If[ PrimeQ[k] && !PrimeQ[(k - 1)/2] && PrimeQ[2k + 1], c++ ]; k++ ]; Print[c], {n, 1, 29}]
