%N Let f(i) = prime( f(i - 1) (modulo 10^n) ) with f(0) = 1; a(n) is the term where the period of the sequence f(i) begins to repeat.
%e For a(1), the sequence is 1, 2, 3, 5, 11, 2, 3, 5, 11, 2, 3,
%e 5, 11, ... The sequence has period {2, 3, 5, 11} so a(1) = 2.
%e For a(2) see the A112279: 1, 2, 3, 5, 11, 31, 127, 103, 5,
%e 11, 31, 127, 103, 5, 11, ..., . This sequence has a cyclic length of 5,
%e the terms {5, 11, 31, 127, 103} and the first term 5 first appears at
%e the fourth term.
%t f[n_] := Block[{k = 1, a}, a[0] = 1; a[i_] := a[i] = Prime[Mod[a[i - 1], 10^n]]; While[t = Table[a[i], {i, 0, k - 1}]; MemberQ[t, a[k]] == False, k++ ]; Flatten[ Position[t, a[k]]][[1]]]; Array[ f, 8]
