Comments

A prime p >= 5 is an E-irregular prime if there is an even integer 2*k such that 2 <= 2*k <= p-3 and p divides E(2*k), where E(i) is the i-th Euler number (A000364). The pair (p, 2*k) is called an E-irregular pair. The number of such pairs for a given p is called the index of E-irregularity of p (cf. Ernvall, Metsänkylä, 1978, p. 618).

In other words, a prime p is E-irregular if its index of E-irregularity is > 0, which is the case if p is a term of A092218. Otherwise, p is E-regular and is a term of A092217.
