A108234 Minimum m such that n*2^m+k is prime, for k < 2^m. In other words, assuming you've read n out of a binary stream, a(n) is the minimum number of additional bits (appended to the least significant end of n) you must read before it is possible to obtain a prime.

Somewhat related to the Riesel problem, A040081, the minimum m such that n*2^m-1 is prime.

			a(12) = 3 because 12 = 1100 in binary and 97 = 1100001 is the first prime that starts with 1100, needing 3 extra bits.

A102029 Smallest semiprime with Hamming weight n (i.e., smallest semiprime with exactly n ones when written in binary), or -1 if no such number exists.

Semiprime analog of A061712. Extended by Stefan Steinerberger. Includes the subset Mersenne semiprimes A092561.

			a(1) = 4 because the first semiprime A001358(1) is 4 (base 10) which is written 100 in binary, the latter representation having exactly 1 one.
a(2) = 6 since A001358(2) = 6 = 110 (base 2) has exactly 2 ones.
a(4) = 15 since A001358(6) = 15 = 1111 (base 2) has exactly 4 ones and, as it also has no zeros, is the smallest of the Mersenne semiprimes.
