COMMENTS
k! + p is composite for k >= p since p divides k! for k >= p.
The first 10^6 terms are nonzero. Remarkably, the number 7426189 + m! is composite for all m <= 1793. - T. D. Noe, Mar 02 2010
Apparently it is not known whether a(n) is ever zero. - N. J. A. Sloane, Aug 11 2011

EXAMPLE
For n = 4, 3!+7 = 13, 4!+7=31, 5!+7=127 and 6!+7 = 727 are the 4 primes in n!+7.
