COMMENTS

Also numbers n such that (16*10^n-1)/3 is prime.

5*10^a(n)+3*(10^a(n)-1)/9 is a solution for part (b) of questions of puzzle 244 from www.primepuzzles.net. If a(n) is greater than 5812 then a(n) is an example that is asked for in this question. - Farideh Firoozbakht (f.firoozbakht(AT)sci.ui.ac.ir), Dec 02 2003
