Comments

Number of steps in Eratosthenes's sieve for 10^n is A122121(n).

Number of primes less than 10^6 equals 10^6 - A065894(6) (sum of all numbers in this sequence) - 1 = A006880(6).

a(n) is the number of composite numbers m <= 10^6 whose least prime factor (A020639(m)) is prime(n). - Rick L. Shepherd, Mar 02 2013
