Number of primes with at most n digits; or pi(10^n).
Also omega( (10^n)! ), where omega(x): number of distinct prime divisors of x. - Cino Hilliard, Jul 04 2007
This sequence also gives a good approximation for the sum of primes < 10^(n/2). This is evident from the fact that the number of primes < 10^2n closely approximates the sum of primes < 10^n. See link on Sum of Primes for the derivation. - Cino Hilliard, Jun 08 2008
(See A025201) approximately it appears that (10^n)/log((n+3)!) < A006880. - Eric Desbiaux, Jul 20 2010
It is very likely that a(26) lies between 1699246750717345212783550 and 1699246750887269886665812. - Vladimir Pletser, Jul 18 2013

Lehmer gave the incorrect value 455052512 for the 10th term. More terms 5/96. Jud McCranie points out that the 11th term is not 4188054813 but rather 4118054813.

a(23) (see Gourdon and Sebah) has yet to be verified and the assumed error is +/-1. - Robert G. Wilson v, Jul 10 2002. The actual error was 14037804. - N. J. A. Sloane, Nov 28 2007
