%N a(n) = smallest prime >= 10^n with primitive root 10.

%C From _David W. Wilson_, Feb 17 2012 : (Start)

%C The decimal expansion of 1/a(n) includes every possible block of n digits. Conjecturally, a(n) is the smallest value with this property.

%C If Artin's conjecture is true, there are an infinite number of primes with primitive root 10, which implies that a(n) exists for all n. Artin's conjecture remains open. (End)
