Year-end appeal: Please make a donation to the OEIS Foundation to support ongoing development and maintenance of the OEIS. We are now in our 61st year, we have over 378,000 sequences, and we’ve reached 11,000 citations (which often say “discovered thanks to the OEIS”).

Is the sequence finite? If so, then A039669 is finite.

EXAMPLE
27 is here because 27-2 is a semiprime and 27-4, 27-8 and 27-16 are primes.
MATHEMATICA
SemiPrimeQ[n_Integer] := If[Abs[n]<2, False, (2==Plus@@Transpose[FactorInteger[Abs[n]]][[2]])]; lst={}; Do[k=1; While[p=n-2^k; p>0 && (SemiPrimeQ[p] || PrimeQ[p]), k++ ]; If[p<=0, AppendTo[lst, n]], {n, 3, 1000}]; lst
CROSSREFS
