%N A048435 Take the first n numbers written in base 3, concatenate them, then convert from base 3 to base 10.
%C A048435 The first three primes in this sequence occur for n = 2 (a(2) = 5), n = 5 (a(5) = 3929), and n = 82 (a(82) = 1.1247...*10^140). - Kurt Foster, Oct 24 2015 [Comment added by _N. J. A. Sloane_, Oct 25 2015]
%C A048435 According to a comment made by Jeff Peltier following the "Most Wanted Prime" video, n = 2546 also gives a prime. See A360503. - _N. J. A. Sloane_, Feb 17 2023
