%N Indices of primes in sequence defined by A(0) = 73, A(n) = 10*A(n-1) + 33 for n > 0.

%C Numbers n such that (690*10^n - 33)/9 is prime.

%C Numbers n such that digit 7 followed by n >= 0 occurrences of digit 6 followed by digit 3 is prime.

%C Numbers corresponding to terms <= 878 are certified primes.
