FORMULA
A056172(n)-1 <= a(n) <= A056172(n).
a(n) = A076472(n) + A076473(n).
EXAMPLE
Pairs (p,q) of successive primes with p+q<=27: {(2,3), (3,5), (5,7), (7,11), (11,13)}, hence a(27)=5.
MAPLE
f:= proc(n) local p;
if n <= 4 then return 0 fi;
p:= prevprime(ceil(n/2));
if p + nextprime(p) <= n then numtheory:-pi(p) else numtheory:-pi(p)-1 fi
end proc:
map(f, [$1..100]); # Robert Israel, Dec 08 2024
