A088115 a(n) = largest prime using least number of possible digits with a digit sum n, or 0 if no such number exists. E.g. if n > 9 and there are no two digit primes with a given digit sum n then three digit numbers are explored and so on. +0

COMMENT

a(26) = 9719 as 989,899 both are composite. This is the first genuine case in which the number of digits used is more than Floor[n/9] +1 (after single digit composite even numbers 4 and 8).

EXAMPLE

a(7) = 7.

a(8) = 71 as 8 is not a prime.
