The following result is proved: If A subset of {1, 2,..., n} is the subset of largest cardinality such that the sum of no two (distinct) elements of A is prime, then | A | =.( n + 1)/2. and all the elements of A have the same parity. The following open question is posed: what is the largest cardinality of A. {1, 2,..., n} such that the sum of no two (distinct) elements of A is prime and A contains elements of both parities?
