Let f(x) = -x^2 + b*x + b^2 be a polynomial function with b = prime(n), n >= 1, then the vertex of the graph of f(x) is at the point (vx;f(vx)) = (b/2;5*b^2/4) with f’(vx) = -2*vx + b = 0. If b = n, n >= 0, then the sequence of the vertex of this polynomial is A032527, the concentric pentagonal numbers: floor( 5*n^2 / 4). So a(n) = floor( 5*prime(n)^2 / 4), n >= 1 is a subsequence of A032527.

Examples

			a(4) = floor(5*7^2 / 4) = floor(61.25) = 61.
