%N A143224 Numbers n such that (number of primes between n^2 and (n+1)^2) = (number
of primes between n and 2n).
%C A143224 The sequence gives the zeros in A143223. The number of primes in question
is A143225(n).
%C A143224 Legendre's conjecture (still open) says there is always a prime between
n^2 and (n+1)^2. Bertrand's postulate (actually a theorem due to
Chebychev) says there is always a prime between n and 2n.
