Introduction

Palindromic Primes are primes that read the same
 p_right left to right (forwards) as from the right to left (backwards) p_left
Here are a few random examples : 3, 131, 71317, 134757431


This study exposes some statistics concerning palindromic primes.
For every length it gives the total number of existing palindromic primes
as well the smallest and greatest primes for those lengths.
Also in this section, now dispersed over six pages, you'll find a variety of
facts and figures about palindromic primes. Don't look for a logical order. It is
just an amalgamation of randomly gathered curios, puzzles, contributions and
more general information. I hope you   Enjoy! Patrick De Geest
