A231336 Integers n such that appending some decimal digit to the first n digits of Pi results in a prime.

0, 1, 2, 5, 11, 12, 18, 37, 39, 77, 82, 100, 125, 128, 220, 305, 601, 676, 1692, 1901, 2202, 2253, 2394, 3318, 3970, 5826, 7001, 9853, 12607, 13434, 16207

Example

0 is in the sequence since 2, 3, 5, and 7 are all primes;
1 is in the sequence since 31 and 37 are both primes;
2 is in the sequence since 311, 313, and 317 are all primes;
3 is not in the sequence since 3141, 3143, 3147, and 3149 are all composites;
4 is not in the sequence since 31411, 31413, 31417, and 31419 are all composites;
5 is in the sequence since 314159 is a prime; etc.
