FORMULA

Numbers n such that n*(3*n-2) has exactly three prime factors (with multiplicity). n such that A000567(n) is an element of A014612. n such that A001222(A000567(n)) = 3. n such that A001222(n) + A001222(3*n-2) = 3. n such that [(3*n-2)*(3*n-1)*(3*n)]/[(3*n-2)+(3*n-1)+(3*n)] is an element of A014612.

EXAMPLE

a(1) = 2 because OctagonalNumber(2) = Oct(2) = 2*(3*2-2) = 8 = 2^3 has exactly three prime factors (which are all equally 2; factors need not be distinct).

a(2) = 15 because Oct(15) = 15*(3*15-2) = 645 = 3 * 5 * 43, a 3-almost prime.

a(5) = 21 because Oct(21) = 21*(3*21-2) = 1281 = 3 * 7 * 61 [also, 1281 = Oct(21) = Oct(Oct(3)) is an iterated octagonal number].

a(14) = 65 because Oct(65) = 65*(3*65-2) = 12545 = 5 * 13 * 193 [also, 12545 = Oct(65) = Oct(Oct(5)) is an iterated octagonal number].

a(29) = 133 because Oct(133) = 133*(3*133-2) = 52801 = 7 * 19 * 397 [also, 52801 = Oct(133) = Oct(Oct(7)) is an iterated octagonal number].
