COMMENTS

Numbers n such that (380*10^n + 7)/9 is prime.

Numbers n such that digit 4 followed by n >= 0 occurrences of digit 2 followed by digit 3 is prime.

Numbers corresponding to terms <= 723 are certified primes.

EXAMPLE

42223 is prime, hence 3 is a term.

PROG

(PARI) a=43; for(n=0, 1500, if(isprime(a), print1(n, ", ")); a=10*a-7)

(PARI) for(n=0, 1500, if(isprime((380*10^n+7)/9), print1(n, ", ")))
