COMMENTS
a(n) is the number of terms in A066196 which lie between 2^(2n-1) and 2^2n inclusively.
EXAMPLE
a(1) = 1 since only 2_10 = 10_2 satisfies the criterion;
a(2) = 0 since there is no prime between 4 and 16 which meets the criterion.
The only primes in the range ]2^5,2^6[ with equal numbers of ones and zeros in their binary expansion are 37 (in binary 100101) and 41 (in binary 101011) thus a(3)=2.
a(4) = 4 since 139, 149, 163 and 197 meet the criterion; etc.
