A108519 a(n) is the smallest natural number m such that (10^n)! - m is prime. +0
2
11, 271, 6701 (list; graph; listen)
OFFSET

1,1

COMMENT

If a(n) is composite then a(n)>10^(2n)+2*10^n. Conjecture: All terms are noncomposite numbers.

EXAMPLE

a(3)=6701 because (10^3)!-6701 is prime and for 0<m<6701 1000!-m is

composite.

MATHEMATICA

a[n_] := (For[m = 1, ! PrimeQ[(10^n)! - m], m++ ]; m); Do[Print[a[n]], {n, 3}]
