%N Indices of primes in A007310.

%C All primes but 2 and 3 are present in A007310, making this sequence an efficient method for storing large quantities of primes. To unpack this sequence into primes, use the formula (6n + (-1)^n - 3) / 2.

%C Indices 1 and 9 (1 and 25) are the smallest nonprimes.

%F a(n) = floor(prime(n+2)/3)+1 = A144769(n+2)+1. - _Gary Detlefs_, Dec 11 2011

%F a(n) ~ n*log(n)/3. - _Ilya Gutkovskiy_, Jul 18 2016

%e A007310(2), 5, is the first prime of the sequence.

%e A007310(50), 149, is also a prime, hence 50 is included.
