[seqfan] Re: Insert a "plus" sign to produce a prime

[Eric Angelini]

Yes, Felix, pardon me for the bad definition -- I had in mind that an
integer belonging to the sequence
produces at least one prime; your
example with 121 illustrates that:
121 belongs to A because 12+1=13.
We do not care here that 1+21 doesn't 
produce a prime. But you're right,
an A' sequence where all possible
insertions produce a prime would
be of interest...
Best,
É.
