Year-end appeal: Please make a donation to the OEIS Foundation to support ongoing development and maintenance of the OEIS. We are now in our 61st year, we have over 378,000 sequences, and we’ve reached 11,000 citations (which often say “discovered thanks to the OEIS”).

A065852
Let u be any string of 3 digits from {0,...,n-1}; let f(u) = number of distinct primes, not beginning with 0, formed by permuting the digits of u to a base-n number; then a(n) = max_u f(u).

COMMENTS
a(n) = 6 for 73 <= n < 985, except a(192) = 5.
EXAMPLE
a(2)=1 because 101 is prime and there are no two 3-digit primes with the same number of ones in base two.
