A002372: Number of decompositions of
2 n, n   ≥   1,
into ordered sums of two odd primes.
{ 0, 0, 1, 2, 3, 2, 3, 4, 4, ... }
If the Goldbach conjecture is true, then
a (n) > 0
for all
n > 2
.

Note that this sequence does not require the primes to be distinct to be counted, and counts solutions with distinct primes twice (for example, for 8, both 3 + 5 and 5 + 3 are counted).

Also note that in the b-file, for above [about]
n = 3000
, all values of this sequence are over a hundred.
