cp's OEIS Frontend

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.

If 1, 3, 7, 13 are taken (rather arbitrarily) as starting terms, then the continuation is 17, 31, 11, 25, 5, 37, 341, 163, 647, 571, 989, 3451, 17669, 206413, 6767, 252289, but no number < 10000000 is suited to continue this sequence further.
There are no further terms. For k to qualify as next term the sums 21+13+k, 7+9+21+13+k and 1+3+7+9+21+13+k have to be prime. One of these sums however is divisible by 3, since 34+k = k+1 (mod 3), 50+k = k+2 (mod 3) and 54+k = k (mod 3). - Klaus Brockhaus, Jul 02 2004

Examples

			1+3+7 = 11, 3+7+9 = 19, 7+9+21 = 37, 9+21+13 = 43, 1+3+7+9+21 = 41, 3+7+9+21+13 = 53 are all prime.
