%N Number of semiprimes between n and n + sqrt(n).

%C It appears that for n > 37 it is always true that a(n) > 0. The exponent can be reduced further. Since 597 + 597^(0.4129) > 611, leaping the record semiprime gap between 597 and 611, it seems that for n > 597 it is always true that there is a semiprime between n and n^(0.4129). It seems that for n > 2705 it is always true that there is a semiprime between n and n^(0.3509). These conjectures are related to the various sequences about semiprime gaps and the merit of such gaps.

%C a(96) appears to be the last zero term. - _T. D. Noe_, Aug 12 2008

%F a(n) = card{S such that S is an element of A001358 and n < S < n + n^(1/2)}.

%e a(0) = 0 because there are no semiprimes between 0 and 0+sqrt(0) = 0.

%e a(2) = 0 because there are no semiprimes between 2 and 2+sqrt(2) = 3.414...

%e a(3) = 1 as the semiprime 4 falls between 3 and 3 + sqrt(3) = 4.732...

%e a(5) = 1 as the semiprime 6 falls between 5 and 5 + sqrt(5) = 7.236...
