A201543 a(n) is the smallest positive integer not in {a(1), ..., a(n - 1)} such that the sum of the least significant digit of a(n) and the most significant digit of a(n - 1) is a prime, with a(1) = 1. 1

%N a(n) is the smallest positive integer not in {a(1), ..., a(n - 1)} such that the sum of the least significant digit of a(n) and the most significant digit of a(n - 1) is a prime, with a(1) = 1.

%C Eric Angelini is the originator of this sequence. It is believed that the sequence is a derangement of the positive integers.

%e a(1) = 1 so a(2) >= 2. As the most significant digit of a(1)+ the least significant digit of a(2) equals 3, a prime, then a(2) = 2.
