Formula

Two prime Gaussian integers are not counted separately if they are associated, i.e. if their quotient is a unit (1, i, -1 or -i).

Similar to the ordinary prime number theorem (see A000720) we have the asymptotic expression: a(n) ~ n^2/(2 * log(n)) - Ahmed Fares (ahmedfares(AT)my-deja.com), Jul 16 2001

a(1)=0, a(n)=1+A066339(n^2)+A066490(n) for n>0. - T. D. Noe, Feb 20 2007

Mathematica

m = 50;
t = Table[x + y I, {x, -m, m}, {y, -m, m}] // Flatten[#, 1]& // Select[#, PrimeQ[#, GaussianIntegers -> True]& ]& // Sort // DeleteDuplicates[#, Abs[#1] == Abs[#2] && MatchQ[#1 /#2 , 1|-1|I|-I]& ]&;
a[n_] := Select[t, Abs[#] <= n&] // Length;
