COMMENT

Comment from Dan Dima, Jan 29 2007: This is not quite the "tail" of the numbers in A068120 because of the restriction that a(n) cannot begin with a zero.

For example a(25) = 153; 25252525252525252525252525252525252525252525252525153 is a prime, but it is greater than A068120(25) = 25252525252525252525252525252525252525252525252525061.

EXAMPLE

a(0) = 2 because 2 is prime, a(1) = 3 and not 1 because 13 is a prime whereas if 11 ( a prime) causes two ones in a row, a(2) = 3 because by appending to 22 a 3 we now have a prime, appending 1 produces 221 = 13*17.
