%C If gpf is replaced by spf, the two sequences diverge at a(40) (here 193, equal to 191 if spf is used instead). - _Giovanni Resta_, Aug 14 2015

%C Among the first 1000 terms, a(n+1) is always the least prime > a(n) except for n = 1, 3, 17, 39, 151 and 422, where a(n+1) = nextprime(a(n)) + 2 except for n = 151 (nextprime = A151800). - _M. F. Hasler_, Aug 17 2015
