Dense Number Sequence

Question

OEIS: A167171

A dense number is a number that has exactly as many prime divisors as non-prime divisors (including 1 and itself as divisors). Equivalently, it is either a prime or a product of two distinct primes. The first 100 dense numbers are:

2, 3, 5, 6, 7, 10, 11, 13, 14, 15, 17, 19, 21, 22, 23, 26, 29, 31, 33, 34, 35, 37, 38, 39, 41, 43, 46, 47, 51, 53, 55, 57, 58, 59, 61, 62, 65, 67, 69, 71, 73, 74, 77, 79, 82, 83, 85, 86, 87, 89, 91, 93, 94, 95, 97, 101, 103, 106, 107, 109, 111, 113, 115, 118, 119, 122, 123, 127, 129, 131, 133, 134, 137, 139, 141, 142, 143, 145, 146, 149, 151, 155, 157, 158, 159, 161, 163, 166, 167, 173, 177, 178, 179, 181, 183, 185, 187, 191, 193, 194

Given a nonnegative integer n, output dense(n). n may be 0-indexed or 1-indexed.

Reference implementation (Sage)

import itertools

def dense_numbers():
    n = 1
    while True:
        prime_divisors = [x for x in divisors(n) if x.is_prime()]
        non_prime_divisors = [x for x in divisors(n) if not x.is_prime()]
        if len(prime_divisors) == len(non_prime_divisors):
            yield n
        n += 1

N = 20
        
print itertools.islice(dense_numbers(), N, N+1).next()

ÆE²Sḍ2µ#Ṫ

Reads from STDIN and uses 1-based indexing. Try it online!

How it works

ÆE²Sḍ2µ#Ṫ  Main link. No arguments. Implicit argument: 0

      µ#   Read an integer n from STDIN and execute the chain to the left for
           k = 0, 1, 2, ... until n of them return a truthy value.
           Return the array of matches.
ÆE           Compute the exponents of k's prime factorization.
  ²          Square each exponent.
   S         Compute the sum of all squares.
    ḍ2       Test if 2 is divisible by the result (true iff  the sum is 1 or 2).
        Ṫ  Tail; extract the last (n-th) matching value of k.

Predicate 0 (main predicate)

:1yt.
:1y     Find the first (input) solutions of predicate 1
   t    Last element

Predicate 1 (auxiliary predicate)

1<.=$p#dl<3
1<.            1 < output
  .=           assign a value to output
  . $p#d       output's prime factorization contains no duplicate

dense=function(n){a=b=0;for(i in which(!n%%1:n))if(which(!i%%2:i)+1==i)a=a+1 else b=b+1;a==b}

It has a tendency to throw a warning. Its not really a problem. Allowing the warning saves me 5 bytes.

Ungolfed

dense=function(n){
     a=b=0                                #Initializing
     factors = which(!n%%1:n)             #Finds all factors
     for(i in factors)                    #Loops through factors
         prime = which(!i%%2:i)+1==i      #Tests if current factor is prime. If it is -- the first term in this vector will be TRUE. Otherwise, it will be false.
           if (prime) a=a+1 else b=b+1    #If first term is true, add 1 to a. Else add one to b. 
      return(a==b)                        #Test equality of a and b.
