Given 3 consecutive primes p1, p2, and p3, p2 is a strong prime if p2 > (p1+p2)/2.
Or, primes that are greater than the arithmetic mean of their immediate surrounding primes.
The number of strong primes < n ~ sum of strong primes < sqrt(n). The number of strong primes < 10^11 = 2014200162 and the sum of strong primes < 10^5.5 = 1972716560, for an error of 0.0206.

Examples

			a(2) = 10 because there are 10 strong primes < 10^2: 11, 17, 29, 37, 41, 59, 67, 71, 79, and 97.
