Comments

The formula and PARI code uses Korselt's criterion. This sequence is a somewhat trivial variant of the more interesting sequence giving the number of Carmichael numbers of the form prime(n)*prime(n')*prime(n") with n < n' < n" (known to be finite for given n).

Examples

			a(7)=2 is the first nonzero term since 561 = 3*11*17 and 1105 = 5*13*17 are the two smallest Carmichael numbers and there's no other Carmichael number having prime(7)=17 as largest factor.
