There are no cross-references between them, even though for the terms shown
the two sequences are the same:


A014692, n-th prime - (n-1):

2, 2, 3, 4, 7, 8, 11, 12, 15, 20, 21, 26, 29, 30, 33, 38, 43, 44, 49, 52,
53, 58, 61, 66, 73, 76, 77, 80, 81, 84, 97, 100, 105, 106, 115, 116, 121,
126, 129, 134, 139, 140, 149, 150, 153, 154, 165, 176, 179, 180, 183, 188,
189, 198, 203, 208, 213, 214, 219, 222, 223

A086969, Number of primes between p(n) and p(p(n)) inclusive:

2, 2, 3, 4, 7, 8, 11, 12, 15, 20, 21, 26, 29, 30, 33, 38, 43, 44, 49, 52,
53, 58, 61, 66, 73, 76, 77, 80, 81, 84, 97, 100, 105, 106, 115, 116, 121,
126, 129, 134, 139, 140, 149, 150, 153, 154, 165, 176, 179, 180, 183, 188,
189, 198, 203, 208, 213, 214


I don't quite understand how A086969 operates. If I plug in 1 for n I get:

p(1) = 2
p(p(1)) = p(2) = 3, and there are zero primes between 3 and 2. Am I missing

Sorry, dumb mistake on my part. I derived the same thing as Ray Chandler
right about the time his message hit my inbox. Thanks!
