EXAMPLE
The gap of 83160 between septuplets starting at p=5639 and p=88799 is the very first gap, so a(1)=5639. The gap of 195930 between septuplets starting at p=88799 and p=284729 is a maximal gap - larger than any preceding gap; therefore a(2)=88799. The next gap starts at p=284729 and is again a maximal gap, so a(3)=284729. The next gap is smaller, so it does not contribute to the sequence.
