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.

Technically, the formula is undefined modulo 2# or 3#, but I have listed their values as "0", since there are no 8's in the first differences of their reduced residue systems. For our purposes, by "8's", we mean n such that n,n+8 are relatively prime to the primorial modulus, while n+1,n+2,n+3,n+4,n+5,n+6,n+7 all share a factor (or factors) with p#.

Examples

			Modulo 5# (=30), there are (5-2)-2*(5-3)+(5-4)=0 occurrences where n, n+8 are relatively prime but n+1, n+2, n+3, n+4, n+5, n+6, n+7 share a factor with 30.
Modulo 7# (=210), there are (7-2)(5-2)-2*(7-3)(5-3)+(7-4)(5-4)=15-16+3=2 such occurrences; i.e when n=89,113 (mod210).

Formula

a(n) = product(p-2) - 2*product(p-3) + product(p-4), where p runs through the primes > 3 and <= prime(n).

Technically, the formula is undefined modulo 2# or 3#, but their values are listed as "0", since there are no 6's in the first differences of their reduced residue systems. For our purposes, by "6's", we mean n such that n,n+6 are relatively prime to the primorial modulus, while n+1,n+2,n+3,n+4,n+5 all share a factor (or factors) with p#. The values of this sequence are tied to actual distribution of sexy primes over N (conjecture).

Examples

			Modulo 5# (=30), there are (2*(5-2)-2*(5-3))=2 occurrences where n,n+6 are relatively prime, but n+1,n+2,n+3,n+4,n+5 share a factor with 30; they are n=1,n=23(mod30). Modulo 7# (=210), there are (2*(7-2)*(5-2)-2*(7-3)*(5-3))=30-16=14 such occurrences.
