%N A118552 Sum of the twin prime pairs less than 10^n.
%C A118552 The PARI program can compute the first 9 terms in reasonable time. a(10) 
               was computed by the program in the link. This took 145 sec on a p4 
               2.53 ghz while a(13) took 1.4 days and a(14) took 15 days with multitasking. 
               The sum of twin primes < 10^n divided by 4 gives a very good approximation 
               for the number of twin primes < 10^(2n). Eg., Sum of twin primes 
               <= 10^8 divided by 4 = 10301443659233. Pi_2(10^16) = 10304185697298. 
               This is an error of .00002661.

               sum-of-twin-primes--n">Sum of twin primes less than 10^n</a>.
%F A118552 Pi_2(n): Number of twin prime pairs <= n.
%e A118552 (3,5),(5,7) are the two twin prime pairs less than 10. These add up to 
               20, the
%e A118552 first term in the sequence.
