%N a(n) = decimal expansion of (n-1) prepended n times to the decimal expansion of n (n > 0).

%C These terms are primes: a(7), a(19), a(989), a(1187), a(4183); see A267237.

%F a(n) = (10^(n+1)*(n-1) - n + 10) / 9 (n <= 9).

%F a(n) = Sum_{i=0...n+1} (n*10^(i*(floor(log(10, n+1)) + 1))) + 1 (n <> 10^k, k > 0), i.e. doesn't give correctly the terms ending with 0.

%e a(3) = 2223 ('3-1' prepended 3 times to '3').

%t Table[ FromDigits[ StringJoin@@ ToString/@ PadLeft[{n}, n+1, n-1]], {n, 50}](* Or *)
