Year-end appeal: Please make a donation to the OEIS Foundation to support ongoing development and maintenance of the OEIS. We are now in our 60th year, we have over 367,000 sequences, and we’ve reached 11,000 citations (which often say “discovered thanks to the OEIS”).

EXAMPLE
a(5) = 12 because R_12 = (10^12 -1)/9 = 111111111111 and from this number, by changing just one digit from 1 to 0, out of the eleven candidates, 111111111101, 111111110111, 111111011111, 111011111111 and 101111111111 are primes.
MATHEMATICA
a = Table[0, {10} ]; Do[p = IntegerDigits[ (10^n - 1)/9]; c = 0; Do[ If[ q = FromDigits[ ReplacePart[p, 0, i]]; PrimeQ[q], c++ ], {i, 2, n} ]; If[ a[[c + 1]] == 0, a[[c + 1]] = n], {n, 1, 400} ]; a
