COMMENTS
From Robert Israel, Feb 20 2020: (Start)
a(n)=0 if n is divisible by 3, as the sum of three consecutive cubes is divisible by 3.
a(22) has 2132 digits, too large for a b-file: it is the concatenation of 99999999999999999999999999999998^3 to 100000000000000000000000000000019^3. (End)

EXAMPLE
a(2)=827 because 827 is the smallest prime formed from concatenation of 2 consecutive cubes i.e. 8 and 27.
