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 The 'Look and Say' sequence of the concatenation of the prime numbers A033308.
%C Concatenate all the decimal prime numbers, see A033308, then describe the resulting infinite string using the 'Look and Say' method of A005150.
%H J. H. Conway and Brady Haran, <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ea7lJkEhytA">Look-and-Say Numbers</a> (2014), Numberphile video.
%H Wikipedia, <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Look-and-say_sequence">Look-and-say sequence</a>.
%e The concatenation of the primes starts "23571113171923293137...".
%e a(1) = 1, a(2) = 2 as there is one '2' at the start of the string.
%e a(9) = 3, a(10) = 1 as the primes '11' and '13' from the substring '1113'. which starts with three 1's.
%Y Cf. A033308, A005150, A001155, A056815, A000040.
