%e There are two ways to write 31 as the sum of distinct super-primes: 31 (a single summand, as 31 is itself a super-prime) and 17 + 11 + 3 (three summands), so a(31) = 2.

%o (PARI) isokp(pt) = {for (k=1, #pt, if (! isprime(pt[k]) || !isprime(primepi(pt[k])), return (0));); #pt == #Set(pt);}

%o a(n) = {if (n < 3, return (0)); nb = 0; forpart(pt = n, if (isokp(pt), nb++), [3, n]); nb;} \\ _Michel Marcus_, Apr 06 2016
