If p and 2p+1 are both odd primes then 4p is a solution. Several numbers of the form 2^i-2 are solutions (see cross referenced sequences). Although 18 is a solution, it is not of any of these forms. %C A001838 Twice Mersenne primes (cf. A000668) are also solutions. - Vladeta Jovovic (vladeta(AT)eunet.rs), Feb 14 2002 %D A001838 N. J. A.
