%C A087237 a(n) is the difference between the largest and smallest solutions to n = x/pi(x), divided by n, where pi(x) = A000720(x).
%C A087237 Equivalently, a(n) is the difference between largest solution and smallest natural solution of the equation pi(n*x) = x. - _Farideh Firoozbakht_, Jan 09 2005 [_Max Alekseyev_ observes that this is trivially equivalent to the first definition.]
