- Definitions
A cubefree number is a positive integer whose prime factorization does not contain any third (or higher) power factors. If follows that all primes are trivially cubefree and the first cubefree number is 1 because it has no prime factors.
Let a[n] be the greatest prime dividing the n-th cubefree number for n >= 2. By convention, let a[1] = 1 even though the first cubefree number, 1, has no prime factors.
- Examples
a[2] is clearly 2 because it is the second cubefree number and also prime. The fourth cubefree number is 4 and it's highest prime factor is 2, hence a[4] = 2.
- Task
Compute and show on this page the first 100 terms of a[n]. Also compute and show the 1,000th, 10,000th and 100,000th members of the sequence.
- Stretch
Compute and show the 1 millionth and 10 millionth terms of the sequence.
This may take a while for interpreted languages.

RPL
I confirm it does take a while for an interpreted language like RPL. Getting the 100,000th term is likely to be a question of hours, even on an emulator.

Wren
This takes just under 4 minutes to run on my system (Core i7).
Although it looks odd that the 1 millionth and 10 millionth terms are the same (and I have no independent source to check against), it would appear that the 1 millionth cubefree number is 1,202,057 which is prime and the 10 millionth such number is coincidentally 10 times this.

var count = 1
var i = 2
var lim1 = 100
var lim2 = 1000
var max = 1e7
while (count < max) {
var cubeFree = false
var factors = Int.primeFactors(i)
if (factors.count < 3) {
cubeFree = true
} else {
cubeFree = true
for (i in 2...factors.count) {
if (factors[i-2] == factors[i-1] && factors[i-1] == factors[i]) {
cubeFree = false
break
}
}
}
if (cubeFree) {
if (count < lim1) res.add(factors[-1])
count = count + 1
if (count == lim1) {
System.print("First %(lim1) terms of a[n]:")
Fmt.tprint("$3d", res, 10)
} else if (count == lim2) {
Fmt.print("\nThe $,r term of a[n] is $,d.", count, factors[-1])
lim2 = lim2 * 10
}
}
i = i + 1
}
