FORMULA
a(n) = A001222(3^n+10).
EXAMPLE
a(0) = 1 because 3^0+10 = 11 is prime.
a(4) = 2 because 3^4+10 = 91 = 7*13 is semiprime.
a(7) = 3 because 3^7+10 = 2197 = 13*13*13 is 3-almost prime.
a(10) = 4 because 3^7+10 = 59059 = 7*11*13*59 is 4-almost prime.
a(16) = 5 because 3^16+10 = 43046731 = 7*13*23*131*157 is 5-almost prime.
MATHEMATICA
