%C For k > 1: a(k+1) = a(k) if and only if prime(k) == 1 modulo 4 and prime(k+1) = prime(k) + 2, see A071695 and A071696.

%F a(n) = A000040(n) + A070750(n).

%F a(n+1) = p + (-1/p) = p + (-1)^{(p-1)/2)}, where p is the n-th odd prime and (a/b) denotes the value of Legendre symbol. - _Lekraj Beedassy_, Mar 17 2005

%F a(n) = (A000040(n) OR 3) - 1. - _Jon Maiga_, Nov 14 2018

%F From _Amiram Eldar_, Dec 24 2022: (Start)

%F a(n) = A100484(n) - A076342(n).

%F Product_{n>=1} a(n)/prime(n) = 2/Pi (A060294). (End)

%e a(2) = 2 because the second prime is 3, and 3 + 2 - 3 = 2.

%e a(3) = 6 because the third prime is 5, and 5 + 2 - 1 = 6.

%e a(4) = 6 because the fourth prime is 7, and 7 + 2 - 3 = 6.
