This is the sequence of `Pillai primes' (so named in
a preprint of G E Hardy \& M V Subbarao, A modified
problem of Pillai and some related questions.
A Pillai prime $p$ is one such that there exists an
integer $n$ such that $n!+1 \equiv 0 \bmod p$ and
$p \not\equiv 1 \bmod n$.
They also define `those natural numbers $m$ with the
property that for each $m$ there is a corresponding
prime $p$ satisfying $m!+1 \equiv 0 \bmod p$ and
$p \not\equiv 1 \bmod m$.
These are 8 9 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 22 ...

Even though there are a large number of sequences in the table, at least
one of yours is not there! Please send it to me using
the submission form on the sequence web page
http://www.research.att.com/~njas/sequences/Submit.html
and I will (probably) add it! Include a brief description. Thanks!
o Take a look at my web page which does lookups "online"! Go to:
http://www.research.att.com/~njas/sequences/
o The whole sequence table is also visible there, as well as
an explanation of the symbols used in the table.
o If your sequence was not in the table,
please send it to me using the submission form on the web page!
o There is a second sequence server (superseeker at research.att.com)
that tries hard to find an explanation. Only 1 request per person
per hour please.
o If the word "lookup" does not appear you will be sent the help file.
Sequentially yours, The On-Line Encyclopedia of Integer Sequences,
