A060391 If 10^n can be written as x*y where the digits of x and y are all nonzero, then let a(n) = largest such y, otherwise a(n) = -1. 1

%N If 10^n can be written as x*y where the digits of x and y are all nonzero, then let a(n) = largest such y, otherwise a(n) = -1.

%C According to Ogilvy and Anderson, 10^33 is the highest known power of ten that can be expressed as the product of two zero-free factors. "If there is another one, it is greater than 10^5000." p. 89
