XOR is exclusive OR, meaning that one bit is on and the other bit is off. XNOR is the negation of XOR, meaning that either both bits are on or both bits are off. For example, 4 in binary is 100 and 6 is 110. Then 100 XOR 110 is 010 but 100 XNOR 110 is 101.
From Bertrand's postulate it follows that prime(n + 1) requires only one bit more than prime(n) if they're not the same bit width. In most computer implementations, however, the numbers are placed zero-padded into fixed bit widths using two's complement, making it necessary to make adjustments to avoid unintentionally negative numbers. - Alonso del Arte, Apr 18 2020

EXAMPLE
|
The second prime is 3 (11 in binary) and the third prime is 5 (101 in binary). We see that 011 XNOR 101 = 001. Hence a(2) = 1.
The fourth prime is 7 (111 in binary). We see that 101 XNOR 111 = 101. Hence a(3) = 5.
