%C Prime powers allowing 1 are listed by A000961.

%Y Sequences obtained by adding n to each term are placed in parentheses below.

%Y For prime instead of prime power we have A007920 (A007918), strict A013632.

%Y For perfect power we have A074984 (A377468), opposite A069584 (A081676).

%Y For squarefree we have A081221 (A067535).

%Y The restriction to the prime numbers is A377281 (A345531).

%Y The strict version is A377282 = a(n) + 1.

%Y For non prime power instead of prime power we have A378371 (A378372).

%Y The opposite version is A378457, strict A276781.

%Y A000015 gives the least prime power >= n, opposite A031218.

%Y A000040 lists the primes, differences A001223.

%Y A000961 and A246655 list the prime powers, differences A057820.

%Y A024619 and A361102 list the non prime powers, differences A375708 and A375735.

%Y A151800 gives the least prime > n.
