COMMENTS

An n-almost-prime is a positive integer that has exactly n prime factors.

This sequence is a rearrangement of the natural numbers. - Robert G. Wilson v, Feb 11 2006.

Each antidiagonal begins with the n-th prime and ends with 2^n.

From Eric Desbiaux, Jun 27 2009: (Start)

(A001222 gives A078840)

A001221 gives the Table:

1

-    2    3    4    5    7    8    9   11 ... A000961

-    6   10   12   14   15   18   20   21 ... A007774

-   30   42   60   66   70   78   84   90 ... A033992

-  210  330  390  420  462  510  546  570 ... A033993

- 2310 2730 3570 3990 4290 4620 4830 5460 ... A051270

Antidiagonals begin with A000961 and end with A002110.

Diagonal is A073329 which is last term in n-th row of A048692.
