A079397: Smallest prime containing
n
smaller primes as substrings of its base 10 representation.
{ 2, 13, 23, 113, 137, 1237, 1733, ... }
Since 2 is the smallest prime and it contains no smaller primes as substrings of its base 10 representation (or any other standard positional base, for that matter), it is first in this list, corresponding to
n = 0
. Next, 13 contains 3 as a substring, but we no longer consider 1 prime, but a unit. The substrings can overlap, as is the case with 113, containing as it does 11, 13 and 3 as substrings. The smallest prime in this list to contain a 9 is 23719.
