A080696 Piptorial primes = product of pips or prime-index-primes. 2
3, 15, 165, 2805, 86955, 3565155, 210344145, 14093057715, 1169723790345, 127499893147605, 16192486429745835, 2542220369470096095, 455057446135147201005, 86915972211813115391955 (list; graph; refs; listen; history; internal format)

COMMENTS

The numbers after the first always end in 5. This is obvious since all pips are odd and their product (excluding 5) = 2k+1 and 5*(2k+1) = 10k+5. Sum of reciprocals converges to 0.4064288978193657814428353009..

FORMULA

prime(prime(1)), prime(prime(1))*prime(prime(2)), ...

EXAMPLE

pip(1) = 3,pip(2)=5,pip(3)=11 piptorial(3) = 3*5*11 = 165

MATHEMATICA

nn=50; FoldList[Times, 1, Transpose[Select[Thread[{Prime[Range[nn]], Range[nn]}], PrimeQ[ Last[#]]&]][[1]]] (* From Harvey P. Dale, July 05 2011 *)

PROG

(PARI) piptorial(n) = {sr=0; pr=1; for(x=1, n, y=prime(prime(x)); pr*=y; print1(pr" "); sr+=1.0/pr; ); print(); print(sr) }
