COMMENT

a(n) = 2 for n = {2,3,5,7,13,17,19,31,61,89,107,127,...} = A000043 Primes p such that 2^p - 1 is prime. 2^p - 1 is then called a Mersenne prime. a(n) = 3 for n = {1,4,10,12,24,27,39,...}. a(n) = 5 for n = {26,76,132,205,238,...}. a(n) = 9 for n = {100,200,...}. a(n) = 15 for n = {15,33,65,...}. a(21) = 18. a(22) = 13. a(41) = 6. a(72) = 11. a(173) = 8.
