%N Numbers which when seen in a mirror are primes (or 1), using calculator-style 7-segment numerals.

%C We construct mirror images of numbers by placing a mirror parallel to the baseline at an acute angle and looking at them from the top of the sheet they are written on.

%C This defines the mirror images by fixing digits 0, 1 and 8, exchanging 2 and 5, reversing the order of the digits and ignoring leading zeros that may result.

%C Only entries of A080228 are admitted, because 3's, 4's, 6's, 7's and 9's do not have calculator style images.

%C If this combined operation on n generates an entry in A008578, n is in this sequence here.

%D P. Giannopoulos, The Brainteasers, unpublished.

%e 110 is in the sequence because the mirror is 011 = 11 and prime.

%e 152 is in the sequence because the mirror is 521 = A000040(98), a prime.

%e 31 is not in the sequence because the 3 cannot be mirrored.

%e 115 is in the sequence because the mirror is 211 = A000040(47), a prime.
