COMMENT

Sequence has 294 terms < 10^7. Being prime(n) = 3 + 2*(Sum{k=1..n-1}A000040(k)*(-1)^k)), for n odd and, prime(n) =(3 + 2*(Sum{k=1..n-1}A000040(k)*(-1)^k)))*(-1), for n even

EXAMPLE

1 - ( -A001223(1) + A001223(2)) = 1-(-1+2) = 0, hence 3 is a term.

1 - ( -A001223(1) + A001223(2) - A001223(3) + A001223(4) - A001223(5)) = 1-(-1+2-2+4-2) = 0, hence 6 is a term.

MATHEMATICA

S=0; a=0; Do[S=S+((Prime[k+1]-Prime[k])*(-1)^k); If[1-S==0, a++; Print[a, " ", k+1]], {k, 1, 10^7, 1}]
