G. C. Greubel, Table of n, a(n) for n = 1..750
EXAMPLE
a(1) = (prime(1)^2^2 - prime(1^2^2))/2 = (16 - 2)/2 = 14/2 = 7,
a(2) = (prime(2)^2^2 - prime(2^2^2))/2 = (81 - 53)/2 = 28/2 = 14,
a(3) = (prime(3)^2^2 - prime(3^2^2))/2 = (625 - 419)/2 = 206/2 = 103,
a(4) = (prime(4)^2^2 - prime(4^2^2))/2 = (2401 - 1619)/2 = 782/2 = 391 = a(4),
a(5) = (prime(5)^2^2 - prime(5^2^2))/2 = (14641 - 4637)/2 = 10004/2 = 5002,
etc.
