cp's OEIS Frontend

This is a front-end for the Online Encyclopedia of Integer Sequences, made by Christian Perfect. The idea is to provide OEIS entries in non-ancient HTML, and then to think about how they're presented visually. The source code is on GitHub.

Are there odd members of the sequence other than 25? There are no others < 10000. An odd number m is in the sequence iff (3^m - m)/2 is prime. - Robert Israel, Jan 02 2015
No more odd terms after a(4) = 25 for m < 200000. a(25) >= 626. - Hugo Pfoertner, Aug 07 2019

Examples

			4 is in this sequence because 3^4 - 4 = 7*11 is semiprime.
10 is in this sequence because 3^10 - 10 = 43*1373 and these two factors are prime.

From Kevin P. Thompson, May 01 2022: (Start)
a(15) >= 335.
391, 443, 607, 683, 737, and 745 are also terms in this sequence. (End)

Examples

			2 is in this sequence because 6^2+2 = 2*19 is semiprime.
7 is in this sequence because 6^7+7 = 271*1033 and these two factors are prime.
