A096243 Number of n-digit base-10 deletable primes. 2

%I #16 Jul 06 2023 09:32:52

%S 4,16,94,585,3788,25768,182762,1340905,10135727,78580647,622188500

%N Number of n-digit base-10 deletable primes.

%C A prime p is a base-b deletable prime if when written in base b it has the property that removing some digit leaves either the empty string or another deletable prime.

%C Deleting a digit cannot leave any leading zeros in the new string. For example, deleting the 2 in 2003 to obtain 003 is not allowed.

%t b = 10; a = {4}; d = {2, 3, 5, 7};

%t For[n = 2, n <= 5, n++,

%t p = Select[Range[b^(n - 1), b^n - 1], PrimeQ[#] &];

%t ct = 0;

%t For[i = 1, i <= Length[p], i++,

%t c = IntegerDigits[p[[i]], b];

%t For[j = 1, j <= n, j++,

%t t = Delete[c, j];

%t If[t[[1]] == 0, Continue[]];

%t If[MemberQ[d, FromDigits[t, b]], AppendTo[d, p[[i]]]; ct++;

%t Break[]]]];

%t AppendTo[a, ct]];
