FORMULA
a(n) = A050435(n) mod A002808(n).
EXAMPLE
Let c(n) be the n-th composite number. a(1) = 1 since c(c(1)) mod c(1) = c(4) mod 4 = 9 mod 4 = 1. a(2) = 0 since c(c(2)) mod c(2) = c(6) mod 6 = 12 mod 6 = 0. - Michael De Vlieger, Dec 09 2018
MATHEMATICA
c[n_] := FixedPoint[n + PrimePi[#] + 1 &, n + PrimePi[n] + 1]; Array[Mod[c@ c@ #, c@ #] &, 71] (* Michael De Vlieger, Dec 09 2018, after Robert G. Wilson v at A002808 *)
