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”).

%N An example of a pyramid of numbers that starts with 1 and successive terms are primes formed by inserting the next power of 3 somewhere in the previous term.
%C This is not really well-defined, but it is a published sequence of some recreational interest.
