COMMENTS

Numbers n such that (260*10^n - 17)/9 is prime.

Numbers n such that digit 2 followed by n >= 0 occurrences of digit 8 followed by digit 7 is prime.

Numbers corresponding to terms <= 454 are certified primes.

EXAMPLE

2887 is prime, hence 2 is a term.

PROG

(PARI) a=27; for(n=0, 1500, if(isprime(a), print1(n, ", ")); a=10*a+17)

(PARI) for(n=0, 1500, if(isprime((260*10^n-17)/9), print1(n, ", ")))
