COMMENTS

Nicely and Nyman have sieved up to 1.3565*10^16 at least. They admit it is likely they have suffered from hardware or software bugs, but believe the probability the sequence up to this point is incorrect is <1 in a million. This sequence is presumably all even integers (in different order). It is not monotonic. The monotonic subsequence of record-breaking prime gaps is A005250.

Essentially the same as A014320. [From R. J. Mathar, Oct 13 2008]
