Year-end appeal: Please make a donation to the OEIS Foundation to support ongoing development and maintenance of the OEIS. We are now in our 61st year, we have over 378,000 sequences, and we’ve reached 11,000 citations (which often say “discovered thanks to the OEIS”).

A276676
Triangle read by rows: T(n,k) (n>=2, k=2,...,n) is the minimal position at which the sequence A_n merges with the sequence A_k, where A_n be the sequence defined in the same way as A159559 but with initial term prime(n).
