A337334 a(n) = pi(b(n)), where pi is the prime counting function (A000720) and b(n) = a(n-1) + b(n-1) with a(0) = b(0) = 1.

It can be proved that this is an increasing sequence from the theorem of Lu and Deng (see LINKS), which states "the prime gap of a prime number is less than or equal to the prime count of the prime number”, or prime(n+1) - prime(n) <= pi(prime(n)).

Examples

			a(1) = pi(b(1)) = pi(a(0) + b(0)) = pi(1 + 1) = pi(2) = 1
a(2) = pi(b(2)) = pi(a(1) + b(1)) = pi(1 + 2) = pi(3) = 2
a(3) = pi(b(3)) = pi(a(2) + b(2)) = pi(2 + 3) = pi(5) = 3
a(4) = pi(b(4)) = pi(a(3) + b(3)) = pi(3 + 5) = pi(8) = 4
a(54)= pi(b(54))= pi(a(53)+ b(53))= pi(3669+34327)=pi(37996)=4016

Comments

The condition "with as many distinct values as possible" means here that for any distinct m and n, provided the orbits of m and n under the map x -> x + pi(x) do not merge, then a(m) <> a(n).
This sequence has similarities with A003602 (A003602(2*n) = A003602(n)) and with A163491 (A163491(n+ceiling(n/2)) = A163491(n)).

Examples

			The first terms, alongside n + pi(n), are:
  n   a(n)  n + pi(n)
