%N Sum of prime divisors of n (with repetition) is one less than the sum of prime divisors (with repetition) of n+1.
%C This is an extension to Ruth-Aaron pairs. Sum of prime factors (inclusive of multiplicity) of pair of Consecutive positive integers are also consecutive.
%C The number of pairs less than 10^k (k=1,2,3,4,5,6,..) with this property are 4,7,8,19,55,149,...
%C Up to 10^13 there are only 5 sets of consecutive terms, namely, (2, 3), (3,4), (27574665988, 27574665989), (862179264458, 1862179264459) and (9600314395008, 9600314395009). - _Giovanni Resta_, Dec 24 2013
%C The sum of reciprocals of this sequence is approximately equal to 1.3077. - _Abhiram R Devesh_, Jun 14 2014
