COMMENT

In base 2 a(n)=concatenation for i=1 to n of A005171(i).

EXAMPLE

a(2)=2*1=2 as 2 is prime

a(3)=2*2=4 as 3 is prime

a(4)=2*4+1=9 as 4 composite

a(5)=2*9=18 as 5 is prime

MAPLE

f:=proc(n) option remember; if n=1 then RETURN(1); fi; if isprime(n) then 2*f(n-1) else 2*f(n-1)+1; fi; end; [njas]
