Year-end appeal: Please make a donation to the OEIS Foundation to support ongoing development and maintenance of the OEIS. We are now in our 59th year, we have over 358,000 sequences, and we’ve crossed 10,300 citations (which often say “discovered thanks to the OEIS”).

COMMENTS

The next term (base 30) will be difficult to calculate because there are over a trillion left-truncatable primes in that base for each of digit-lengths 29-34. Nevertheless, the largest left-truncatable prime in this base can be estimated by theory to have a length of about 82. [Hans Havermann, Aug 16 2011]
