COMMENT

If n == 0 (mod 3) then the exponent k must be odd, if n>1 and n == 1 (mod 3) then k must be even and if n == 2 (mod 3) then k can be either.

EXAMPLE

For n = 4, p = 2 -> 2^2+(2*4-1) = 11, the fourth entry because 2^1+(2*4-1) which equals 9 is not a prime.

MATHEMATICA

f[n_] := Block[{p = 1}, While[ !PrimeQ[2^p + 2n - 1], p++ ]; 2^p + 2n - 1]; Array[f, 64] (* Robert G. Wilson v *)

PROGRAM

(PARI) g2(n) = forstep(k=1, n, 2, for(p=1, n, y=k+2^p; if(isprime(y), print1(y", "); break)))
