COMMENT

a(n) is the index of last occurrence of n in A060715. This calculation relies on the fact that Pi(2*m)-Pi(m) > m/(3*Log(m)) for m>=5. It can be shown that every integer >= 0 occurs in A060715, so there is no problem in finding the last occurrence.

EXAMPLE

a(10)=50 since ten primes last arise between 50 and 100

(53,59,61,67,71,73,79,83,89,97).
