Comments

According to the conjecture in A236472, this sequence contains infinitely many terms, i.e., there are infinitely many prime triples of the form {prime(p), prime(p) + 2, prime(p) + 6} with p prime.

See A236462 for a similar sequence.

Examples

			a(1) = 3 since 3, prime(3) + 2 = 7 and prime(3) + 6 = 11 are all prime, but prime(2) + 6 = 9 is composite.
