COMMENT

Analogous to A002620 except primes are substituted for the natural numbers.

FORMULA

Arrange primes in a block spiral formation. a(n) is determined by the point of rotation to allow for continuation of the sequence.

EXAMPLE

Spiral begins:

(73)--79--83--89---97--(101)

..|......................|

.71..(17)-19--23--(29) etc.
