[seqfan] Re: when is 1234...n a prime?

[Robert G. Wilson v]

Seq. Fans,

	While we have not found any terms in A007908 which are primes, such is not the case for A252043. A007908 is a subsequence of A252043.

	I found 10, 14, 24, 235, 2804, 4347, …, . The search limit was 25000.

Bob.

I've completed the search below 10^5 -- still no primes.
