EXAMPLE

7#/phi(7#) = (2*3*5*7)/(1*2*4*6) = 4.375 >= 4, 5#/phi(5#) = 3.75. Hence a(4) = 7.

MATHEMATICA

prod=1; i=0; Table[While[prod<n, i++; prod=prod/(1-1/Prime[i])]; Prime[i], {n, 1, 20}]

PROGRAM

(PARI) al(lim) = local(mm, n, m); mm=3; n=2; m=1; forprime(x=3, lim, n*=x; m*= (x-1); if (n\m >= mm, print1(x", "); mm++)); /* This will generate all terms of this sequence from the 3rd onward, up to lim. The computation slows down for large values because of the size of the internal values. */ - Fred Schneider (frederick.william.schneider(AT)gmail.com), Aug 13 2009, modified by Franklin T.
