Table of n, a(n) for n=0..92.

Example

For n=8, the primes are 2,29,71,29,2, so a(n)=5.
a(n)=6 for n=9,10,11,12. Also, a(n)=10 for n=149,...,154.

Mathematica

a[n_] := Count[Table[PrimeQ[Binomial[n, w]+1], {w, 0, n}], True]

Prog

(PARI) a(n) = sum(j=0, n, isprime(1 + binomial(n, j))); \\ Michel Marcus, Oct 30 2018
