FORMULA
|
pi(n) = number of primes less than or equal to n. By repeating n=pi(n), n will reach 0 in a finite number of steps.
|
|
EXAMPLE
|
Pi(100) = 25
Pi(25) = 9
Pi(9) = 4
Pi(4) = 2
Pi(2) = 1
Pi(1) = 0
Total steps to reach 0 = 6. Thus 6 is the 3rd entry in the sequence corresponding to n=2.

PROGRAM
