COMMENTS
For k > 1, numbers k such that the digits 16 followed by k-1 occurrences of the digit 0 followed by the digit 1 is prime (see Example section).
a(31) > 10^5.
EXAMPLE
4 is in this sequence because 16*10^4+1 = 160001 is prime.
Initial terms and associated primes:
a(1) = 0, 17;
a(2) = 2, 1601;
a(3) = 3, 16001;
a(4) = 4, 160001;
a(5) = 18, 16000000000000000001. etc.
