: I did add a stretch goal to this (draft) task, &nbsp; but only for the upper limit. &nbsp; I thought the adding of which leading and trailing decimal digit &nbsp; (other than using the specific digit &nbsp; '''3''') &nbsp; would/might invalidate those existing computer programming solutions what made special tests when using a customized range start, &nbsp; and/or a special increment. &nbsp; Certainly, &nbsp; the adding of any &nbsp; radix (base)&nbsp; to be used would add complexity to the requirements and invalidate all existing programming entries. &nbsp; &nbsp; For instance, one option could/would be to search for primes from &nbsp; 3 &nbsp; to &nbsp; 4000-1 &nbsp; by &nbsp; 10. &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; Another customization would be to also check for the leading digit and incorporate special handling so as to bump the range to the next &nbsp; &nbsp; 10, &nbsp; 100, &nbsp; 1000, ... &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; range of integers. &nbsp; &nbsp; -- [[User:Gerard Schildberger|Gerard Schildberger]] ([[User talk:Gerard Schildberger|talk]])
 
: I do like the idea of extending the (draft) task to find prime numbers that have (both) a leading and trailing (decimal) digit of &nbsp; '''Y'''. &nbsp; The upper limit of the range would/should at least be &nbsp; '''10,000'''. &nbsp; &nbsp; -- [[User:Gerard Schildberger|Gerard Schildberger]] ([[User talk:Gerard Schildberger|talk]]) 13:50, 24 July 2021 (UTC)
