%N Numbers whose binary expansion is the concatenation of the binary expansion of two prime numbers in at least two ways.

%C A simplified variant (and subsequence) of A257318 (and A090421) where the concatenation of any number of primes is considered.

%C The subsequence of numbers which are concatenation of 2 primes in at least 3 ways is (93, 95, 189, 191, 239, 253, 335, 381, 383, 669, ...).

%C All terms are odd. Indeed, if an even number n > 2 is concatenation of two primes (in binary), then it is of the form 'n' = 'floor(n/4)''2' (where 'x' is x in binary), and there is no other possible decomposition.

%F A090418(a(n)) >= 2. (Necessary but not sufficient condition. This actually characterizes elements of A257318. For example, all terms of A090423 satisfy this but many of them are not terms of this sequence.)

%e 23 = 10111[2] = (10[2])(111[2]) = (101[2])(11[2]) which is (2)(7) resp. (5)(3).

%o (PARI) is(n,c=2)={for(i=2,#binary(n)-2,bittest(n,i-1)&&isprime(n>>i)&&isprime(n%2^i)&&!c--&&return(1))}

%Y Cf. A090418, A090421, A090423, A257318.
