COMMENTS
It is not known unconditionally whether there are infinitely many primitive weird numbers (PWN, A002975), although numerical data provides strong evidence: even the number of weird numbers of the form 2^k*p*q (A258882, A258333) seems to increase rapidly as k increases. Melfi has shown that Cramer's conjecture implies the infiniteness of PWN.

FORMULA
a(n) = A275493(n+1) - A275493(n).
EXAMPLE
The first primitive weird numbers are 70, 836, 4030, 5830, 7192, 7912, 9272, 10792, ..., so there is one between 2^6 and 2^7 = 128, one between 2^9 and 2^10 = 1024, one between 2^11 and 2^12 = 4096, three between 2^12 and 2^13, etc.
PROG
(PARI) a(n)=sum(n=2^n\2+1, 2^n, is_A002975(n*2))
