0 + 1 = 1 is not of the required form, but 0 + 1 + 2 = 3 is, so a(0) = 2. For n = 1, n + 2 = 3 is of the required form, hence a(1) = 2. For n = 2, n + 3 = 5 is of the required form, hence a(2) = 3. For n = 3, n + 4 = 7 is of the required form, hence a(3) = 4. For n = 4, 4 + 5 = 9 and 4 + 5 + 6 = 15 are not of the required form, but 4 + 5 + 6 + 7 = 22 = 11*2 is, hence a(4) = 7.

Formula
a(n) = min {p - n, q + n - 1}, where p = 2^r + 2n - 1 and q = 2^s - 2n + 1 are the smallest primes of the respective form.
