%N Sum of the differences of the larger and smaller parts in the partitions of 2n into two parts with the larger part prime and smaller part squarefree.

%C Sum of the slopes of the tangent lines along the left side of the parabola b(x) = 2*n*x-x^2 at squarefree values of x such that 2n-x is prime for x in 0 < x <= n. For example, d/dx 2*n*x-x^2 = 2n-2x. So for a(6), the squarefree values of x that make 12-x prime are x=1,5 and so a(6) = 12-2*1 + 12-2*5 = 10 + 2 = 12. - _Wesley Ivan Hurt_, Mar 25 2018

%e For n = 7, 14 can be partitioned into a prime and a smaller squarefree number in two ways: 13 + 1 and 11 + 3, so a(7) = (13 - 1) + (11 - 3) = 20. - _Michael B. Porter_, Mar 27 2018
