%N Minimal prime concatenation sequence with base 2 and seed 1.

%H Clark Kimberling, <a href="/A261200/b261200.txt">Table of n, a(n) for n = 1..500</a>

%e In base 2, the least prime starting with seed 1 is 10; the least prime starting with 10 is 101; the least prime starting with 101 is 1011. Triangular format:

%e 1

%e 10

%e 101

%e 1011

%e 10111

%e 101111

%e 10111111
