A090746 Consider numbers of the form ...19753197531975319, whose digits read from the right are 9,1,3,5,7,9,1,3,5,7,9,1,... Sequence gives lengths of these numbers which are primes. 1
2, 8, 11, 21, 54, 734, 5636 (list; graph; refs; listen; history; internal format)
OFFSET

0,1

EXAMPLE

a(1)=2 because 19 is prime and 19 has 2 digits

a(2)=8 because 31975319 is prime and 31975319 has 8 digits
