Examples
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.
