Comments

Also primes in A008514.

Sequence is disjoint to A005385: If n^4 + (n+1)^4 is a prime p, then (p-1)/2 = n^4 + 2*n^3 + 3*n^2 + 2*n. (p-1)/2 = 8 for n = 1 and (p-1)/2 is divisible by n for n > 1. In each case, (p-1)/2 is not prime.

Examples

			For n=3, n^4 + (n+1)^4 = 337 is prime and (337-1)/2 = 168 = 3*56 is not prime.
