COMMENTS

The k-th composition in standard order (graded reverse-lexicographic, A066099) is obtained by taking the set of positions of 1's in the reversed binary expansion of k, prepending 0, taking first differences, and reversing again. This gives a bijective correspondence between nonnegative integers and integer compositions.

A prime index of n is a number m such that prime(m) divides n. The multiset of prime indices of n is row n of A112798.

EXAMPLE

The prime indices of 36 are {1,1,2,2}, with first differences plus one (1,2,1), which is the 13th composition in standard order, so a(36) = 13.
