FORMULA
a(n) ~ n. - Charles R Greathouse IV, Jun 13 2017
EXAMPLE
a(1)=0 because 0-2=-2 and 0-3=-1 are nonprime.
MATHEMATICA
Join[{0, 1}, Select[Range[150], !PrimeQ[#-2]&&!PrimeQ[#-3]&]] (* 0 and 1 are in the sequence because primes are usually defined to include only positive integers, but because Mathematica treats many negative numbers, including -2 and -3, as primes, it is necessary to include 0 and 1 via "Join". *) (* Harvey P. Dale, Aug 06 2012 *)
PROG
(PARI) is(n)=!isprime(n-2) && !isprime(n-3) \\ Charles R Greathouse IV, Jun 13 2017
