COMMENT

Primes whose reciprocals have even period length.

A002371(A049084(a(n))) mod 2 == 0.

Not the same as A040121: a(33)=241 is not in A040121.

Let (d(i): 1<=i<=2*K) be the period of decimal expansion of 1/a(n), K=A002371(A049084(a(n)))/2,

then d(i) + d(i+K) = 9 for i with 1<=i<=K, or, equivalently:

u + v = 10^K - 1 with u=SUM(d(i)*10^(K-i):1<=i<=K) and v=SUM(d(i+K)*10^(K-i):1<=i<=K). (End)

EXAMPLE

Contribution from Reinhard Zumkeller (reinhard.zumkeller(AT)gmail.com), Oct 05 2008: (Start)

(0,5,8,8,2,3,5,2,9,4,1,1,7,6,4,7) is the period of 1/17 (see A007450),

K = A002371(A049084(17))/2 = A002371(7)/2 = 16/2 = 8,

u = 5882352, v = 94117647: u + v = 99999999 = 10^8 - 1. (End)
