%N A102049 Indices of primes which are denominators of convergents to e.
%C A102049 The prime denominators of convergents to e form A094008 (so A000040(a(n)) = A094008(n)). Their positions in A007677 (denominators of convergents to e) form A094007, so a(n) = A000720(A007677(A094007(n))).

%F A102049 a(n) = A000720(A094008(n)).
%e A102049 a(1) = 2 because the first convergent to e with prime denominator is 8/3 and the index of 3 is 2, i.e., 3 is the 2nd prime.
