A124247 Numbers n such that n!!-8 and n!!+8 are two consecutive primes. +0

41, 91, 299, 341 (list; graph; listen)
OFFSET

1,1

COMMENT

n is in the sequence iff n!!-8 and n!!+8 are primes and the four numbers n!!-2,n!!+2, n!!-4 & n!!+4 are composites. It's interesting that related to the term 341 we can say 341!!-(3+4+1) and 341!!+(3+4+1) are two consecutive primes with length 341+prime(3+4+1). Conjecture: 341 is the largest term of this sequence.

EXAMPLE

341 is in the sequence because 341!!-8 and 341!!+8 are primes and the four numbers 341!!-2, 341!!+2, 341!!-4 & 341!!+4 are composites.
