COMMENTS
This sequence arises as a result of exponentiation with the terms of the sequence A000040 used as the base and the terms of the sequence A002808 used as the exponent.
FORMULA
a(n) = A000040(n)^A002808(n).
EXAMPLE
a(3)=5^8=390625 because 5 is the 3rd prime number and 8 is the 3rd composite number.
