Comments

Note how in comparison to A255545, the even numbers on the first row have been shifted one step left, "pushing" term 1 out of the array proper. This was done to obtain a better alignment with arrays like A083221 and A255127 associated with other sieves, from which one may then induce permutations like A255553 by cross-referencing.

The starting offset of the sequence giving the terms in square array is 2. However, we can tacitly assume that a(1) = 1 when the sequence is used one-dimensionally as a permutation of natural numbers.
