%N Odd-indexed terms of Agoh's congruence A046094: a(n) is conjectured to be 1 iff 2n+1 is prime.

%C Except for A046094(2) = 1, the even-indexed terms of A046094 are all zero since Bernoulli(2n+1) = 0 for n > 0.

%F a(n) = - (2n+1)*Bernoulli(2n) mod 2n+1.

%e -(2*1+1)*Bernoulli(2*1) = -3*(1/6) = -1/2 == -2 == 1 mod 3, so a(1) = 1.
