This is a front-end for the Online Encyclopedia of Integer Sequences, made by Christian Perfect. The idea is to provide OEIS entries in non-ancient HTML, and then to think about how they're presented visually. The source code is on GitHub.

A074871 Start with n and repeatedly apply the map k -> T(k) = A053837(k) + A171765(k); a(n) is the number of steps (at least one) until a prime is reached, or 0 if no prime is ever reached.

%C A074871 The first occurrence of k beginning with 0: 1, 2, 17, 59, 337, 779, 16999, 6888888, ..., . - _Robert G. Wilson v_, Oct 20 2010
%e A074871 T(2)=2. So in one step we reach a prime.
%e A074871 T(3)=3 and then in one step again we reach a prime.
%e A074871 T(4)=4 and we will never reach a prime.
%e A074871 T(11)=1+2=3 and again in one step we reach a prime.
%e A074871 T(17)=7+8=15 --> T(15)=5+6=11 and then in two steps we reach a prime.
%e A074871 T(13)=3+4=7 and then 1 step......
%e A074871 T(14)=4+5=9 --> T(9)=9 --> T(9)=9........ and we will never reach a prime.
