A068695 Smallest number (not beginning with 0) that yields a prime when placed on the right of n. 11

%I #52 Feb 18 2024 08:19:41

%S 1,3,1,1,3,1,1,3,7,1,3,7,1,9,1,3,3,1,1,11,1,3,3,1,1,3,1,1,3,7,1,17,1,

%N Smallest number (not beginning with 0) that yields a prime when placed on the right of n.

%C Max Alekseyev (see link) shows that a(n) always exists. Note that although his argument makes use of some potentially large constants (see the comments in A060199), the proof shows that a(n) exists for all n. - _N. J. A. Sloane_, Nov 13 2020

%C Many numbers become prime by appending a one-digit odd number. Some numbers (such as 20, 32, 51, etc.) require a 2-digit odd number (A032352 has these). In the first 100000 values of n there are only 22 that require a 3-digit odd number (A091089). There probably are some values that require odd numbers of 4 or more digits, but these are likely to be very large. - Chuck Seggelin (barkeep(AT)plastereddragon.com), Dec 18 2003

%e a(20)=11 because 11 is the minimum odd number which when appended to 20 forms a prime (201, 203, 205, 207, 209 are all nonprime, 2011 is prime).

%o (Python)

%o from sympy import isprime

%o from itertools import count

%o def a(n): return next(k for k in count(1) if isprime(int(str(n)+str(k))))

%o print([a(n) for n in range(1, 103)]) # _Michael S. Branicky_, Oct 18 2022

%Y Cf. A032352 (a(n) requires at least a 2 digit odd number), A091089 (a(n) requires at least a 3 digit odd number).

%Y Cf. also A060199, A228325, A336893.
