COMMENT

If Andrica's conjecture is true sequence is >=1.

Since Andrica's conjecture is bounded below only by zero, a(n) is not bounded above.

FORMULA

Conjecture : for n>=4, a(n)>=2. More generally for any m >=1, the set of k such that a(k)=m is finite. i.e. if n>=217, a(n)>=3, if n>=263 a(n)>=4, if n>=590 a(n)>=5, if n>=3385 a(n)>=6 ...

EXAMPLE

a(1)=round(1/(sqrt(3)-sqrt(2)))=3
