J. K. Andersen, Consecutive Congruent Primes.

a(2) = 5483 because this number is the first in a sequence of 2 consecutive primes all of the form 9n + 2.

NextPrime[ n_Integer ] := Module[ {k = n + 1}, While[ ! PrimeQ[ k ], k++ ]; Return[ k ] ]; PrevPrime[ n_Integer ] := Module[ {k = n - 1}, While[ !
