This is the limit of the terms of A338968, either digit-wise, or as a constant, up to powers of 10.

Examples

			The smallest prime with 1, 2, 3, 4, ... digits is, respectively, 7, 97, 997, 9973, 99991, 999983, ...
Here we list the sequence of digits of these numbers: 7; 9, 7; 9, 9, 7; 9, 9, 7, 3; ...
This can be considered, as for the Champernowne and Copeland-Erdős constants, as the decimal expansion of a real constant 0.797997997399991...
