%N Indices of primes which are denominators of convergents to e.
%C The prime denominators of convergents to e form A094008 (so A000040(a(n)) = A094008(n)). Their positions in A007677 (denominators of convergents to e) form A094007, so a(n) = A000720(A007677(A094007(n))).
%C a(6)-a(7) computed using Kim Walisch's primecount program. - _Giovanni Resta_, Jun 03 2019
