%N Number of primes of the form 1 + b^2048 for 1 < b < 10^n.
%C Primes 1 + b^2048 are a form of generalized Fermat primes.
%C It is conjectured that a(n) is asymptotic to 0.00352764*li(10^n)

%e a(4) = 4 because the generalized Fermat numbers F_11(b) where b<10^4 are prime only for b = 150, 2558, 4650, 4772.
%o (PARI) a(n) = sum(b=1, 10^n/2-1, isprime((2*b)^2048+1))
