For k=7, prime(7) - 2*7 = 17 - 14 = 3 = a(1).
For k=8, prime(8) - 2*8 = 9 - 16 = 3 = a(2).
For k=9, prime(9) - 2*9 = 23 - 18 = 5 = a(3).
For k=12, prime(12) - 2*12 = 37 - 24 = 13 = a(4).
For k=15, prime(15) - 2*15 = 47 - 30 = 17 = a(5).
For k=19, prime(19) - 2*19 = 67 - 38 = 29 = a(6).
For k=20, prime(20) - 2*20 = 71 - 40 = 31 = a(7).
