Numbers k such that there are only nonprimes between k*sqrt(k-1) and (k+1)*sqrt(k).
No more terms up to 100000. - Franklin T. Adams-Watters, Sep 08 2011
EXAMPLE
a(1)=1 because 1*sqrt(1-1)=0<(nonprime 1)<(1+1)*sqrt(1)=2,
a(2)=24 because 24*sqrt(24-1)<(nonprimes 116,117,118,119,120,121,122)<(24+1)*sqrt(24).
