The number k first occurs in century A186311(k).

Examples

			a(3) = 16 because there are 16 primes between 300 and 399 (namely, 307, 311, 313, 317, 331, 337, 347, 349, 353, 359, 367, 373, 379, 383, 389, 397).
a(4) = 17 because there are 17 primes between 400 and 499 (401, 409, 419, 421, 431, 433, 439, 443, 449, 457, 461, 463, 467, 479, 487, 491, 499).
