Year-end appeal: Please make a donation to the OEIS Foundation to support ongoing development and maintenance of the OEIS. We are now in our 61st year, we have over 378,000 sequences, and we’ve reached 11,000 citations (which often say “discovered thanks to the OEIS”).

Consider all pairs of primes (p,q) with p+q = 2n, p <= q; a(n) is the sum of all the p's.

%e 2*5 = 10 can be expressed as the sum of two primes in two ways, 3+7 and 5+5, so a(5) = 3+5 = 8.
