COMMENTS

Maple worksheet available upon request. Here is the minimal set in base 12 where X is 10 and E is 11. 2, 3, 5, 7, E, 11, 61, 81, 91, 401, X41, 4441, X0X1, XXXX1, 44XXX1, XXX0001, XX000001. This minimal set demonstrates the elegance of base 12 generally since you can mentally follow the process of elimination, all primes after E end in the neutral digit 1 and the last two entries only contain X, 0 and 1. There are no primes of the form X0...01 since the sum of its digits is E and hence it is divisible by E.

EXAMPLE

a(10)=401 since no earlier prime in the list contained the pattern "*4*0*1*" where "*" stands for zero or more digits. The list can be manually constructed using a sieve-like process: eliminate all subsequent primes of the form "*4*0*1*" from the list of all primes. Assuming all previous elements have also been similarly determined, the next remaining prime should be X41.
