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”).

A119017
Primes from binary expansion of Pi, another version. Starting with the first bit of the binary expansion, A004601 = 1,1,0,0,1,0,0,1,0,0,0,0,1,1,1,1,1,1,0,1,1,0,1,... we move rightward until we encounter another 1. Since 11 (= 3 in decimal) is prime, we move to the next 1 and repeat the process.
