COMMENTS

Numbers n such that 80*10^n + 9 is prime.

Numbers n such that digit 8 followed by n >= 0 occurrences of digit 0 followed by digit 9 is prime.

Numbers corresponding to terms <= 697 are certified primes.

FORMULA

a(n) = A103070(n) - 1. - 8856 from Herman Jamke (hermanjamke(AT)fastmail.fm), Jan 01 2008

EXAMPLE

8000009 is prime, hence 5 is a term.

PROG

(PARI) a=89; for(n=0, 1000, if(isprime(a), print1(n, ", ")); a=10*a-81)

(PARI) for(n=0, 1000, if(isprime(80*10^n + 9), print1(n, ", ")))
