%N a(n) = prime(2*n) - prime(2*n-1) + prime(2*n+1).
%C Original name was: Difference and sum of staircase primes according to the rule: bottom - top + next top.
%C We list the primes in staircase fashion as follows.
%C 2
%C 3.5
%C ..7.11
%C ....13.17
%C .......19.23
%C ..........29.31
%C .............37.41
%C .....................
%C ....................n
%C ....................n+1.n+2.
%C The right diagonal, RD(n), is the set of top primes and the left diagonal, LD(x), is the set of bottom primes. Then a(n) = LD(n+1) - RD(n) + RD(n+2).
