COMMENTS
Prime gaps are differences between adjacent prime numbers.
FORMULA
Partial sums are A333230. The partial sum up to but not including the n-th one is A333381(n - 1).
EXAMPLE
The prime gaps split into the following strictly decreasing subsequences: (1), (2), (2), (4,2), (4,2), (4), (6,2), (6,4,2), (4), (6), (6,2), (6,4,2), (6,4), (6), (8,4,2), (4,2), (4), (14,4), (6,2), (10,2), (6), (6,4), (6), ...
