COMMENTS
For k > 0, numbers k such that the digits 33 followed by k-1 occurrences of the digit 7 followed by the digit 3 is prime (see Example section).
a(24) > 2*10^5.
EXAMPLE
3 is in this sequence because (304*10^3 - 43)/9 = 33773 is prime.
Initial terms and associated primes:
a(1) = 0, 29;
a(2) = 2, 3373;
a(3) = 3, 33773;
a(4) = 6, 33777773;
a(5) = 8, 3377777773; etc.
