COMMENT
|
Related to a computer implementation of the sieve of Eratosthenes: Each positive odd number is represented by a bit: 0 if it is prime, 1 if it is composite. The term a(n) contains the 8 bits corresponding to the odd numbers from 16n+3 to 16n+17.

EXAMPLE
|
In binary, a(0)=00010010, which means that among the odd numbers 3,5,7,9,11,13,15,17, only 9 and 15 are composite.
