%N Smallest n-digit number that is divisible by exactly 3 primes (counted with multiplicity).
%C This is to 3 as smallest n-digit semiprime A098449 is to 2, and as smallest n-digit prime A003617 is to 1. Smallest n-digit triprime. Smallest n-digit 3-almost prime.
%e a(1) = 8 because 8=2^3 is the smallest (only) 1-digit number divisible by exactly 3 primes (counted with multiplicity).
%e a(2) = 12 because 12 = 2^2 * 3 is the smallest of the (21) 2-digit numbers divisible by exactly 3 primes (counted with multiplicity).
%e a(3) = 102 because 102 = 2 * 3 * 17 is the smallest 3-digit numbers divisible by exactly 3 primes (counted with multiplicity).
