%N A099260 Number of decimal digits in (10^n)-th prime number.
%C A099260 Some terms have been deduced from A006880's terms. As lim {n->oo} p_n/
               (n logn) = 1 is equivalent to the prime number theorem (see, for 
               example, Elementary Introduction to Number Theory by Calvin T. Long, 
               1972, p. 67), a good first approximation (without having done any 
               detailed analysis) should be a(n)=floor(log_10((10^n)*log(10^n))), 
               which correctly generates all the first 22 terms and predicts that 
               the sequence will continue 24,25,...,43,44,46,47,...,435,436,438,
               439,...,4344,4345,4347,4348,...,4503,4504 through the first 4500 
               terms (with only 5,45,437,4346 not appearing - compare with the digits 
               of log_10(e) in A002285).
%e A099260 a(4) = 6 because A006988(4) = prime(10^4) = 104729 has six decimal digits.
%Y A099260 Cf. A006988 ((10^n)-th prime), A006880 (pi(10^n)), A099261 (bit lengths).
