COMMENTS
Primes in which repeatedly deleting the least significant digit gives a prime at every step until a single-digit prime remains. The sequence ends at a(83) = 73939133 = A023107(10).
The subsequence which consists of the following "chain" of consecutive right truncatable primes: 73939133, 7393913, 739391, 73939, 7393, 739, 73, 7 yields the largest sum, compared with other chains formed from subsets of this sequence: 73939133 + 7393913 + 739391 + 73939 + 7393 + 739 + 73 + 7 = 82154588. - Alexander R. Povolotsky, Jan 22 2008
Can also be seen as a table whose n-th row lists the n-digit terms; row lengths (0 for n >= 9) are given by A050986. The sequence can be constructed starting with the single-digit primes and appending, for each p in the list, the primes within 10*p and 10(p+1), formed by appending a digit to p. - M. F. Hasler, Nov 07 2018
