COMMENTS
Indices of record values of primepi(n) - A181834(n) (the number of primes <= n which are not strongly prime to n). - Peter Luschny, Mar 17 2013
As pointed out by Don Reble on the SeqFan list, one has a(n) = A059958(n)+1 at least up to a(18), since so far A001221(m*(m+1)) = n (and not ">") for m = A059958(n). - M. F. Hasler, Jan 15 2014
10^13 < a(19) <= 69322940121436. - Giovanni Resta, Mar 24 2020
FORMULA
a(n) = A059958(n) + 1 for 0 < n < 19. - Robert G. Wilson v, Feb 18 2014
EXAMPLE
a(4) = 15 because in base 15 you can test for divisibility by 4 different primes (3 and 5 directly, 2 and 7 by "casting out 14's")
MAPLE
