%N Numbers that yield a prime whenever a '3' is inserted between any two digits.

%C Motivated by existing sequences defined in a similar way for other digits (e.g., A164329 for digit 0), subsequence A158594 = intersection of this and A068674 ('3' is prefixed or appended), and others: cf. cross-references.

%e 121 is in the sequence because it yields a prime when a digit 3 is inserted after the first or after the second digit, which yields the prime 1321 or 1231, respectively. The term itself does not need to be prime.

%e The single-digit numbers 0..9 are in the sequence because they satisfy the condition voidly: nothing can be inserted, so no insertion yields a nonprime, so all possible insertions always yield a prime.
