%N First prime starting a chain of exactly n consecutive primes congruent to 5 modulo 6.

%C The term "exactly" means that before the first and after the last primes of chain, the immediate primes are not congruent to 5 modulo 6.

%C a(21)>2^31, a(22)= 766319189. - _Hugo Pfoertner_, Jul 31 2003

%C See A057622 for the variant where "exactly" is replaced by "at least". See A055625 for the variant "congruent to 1 (mod 6)". - _M. F. Hasler_, Sep 03 2016
