Hey, I only need to find 5 more puzzle caches...





... and then I'll be 1/4 done with this challenge. It should only take another 20 years or so.

I only need to find a number of puzzle caches equal to the sum of three consecutive primes. This number is also a narcissistic number. Without looking at my GC profile, can you figure out the number?

I think the only narcissistic number less than 100 that is also the sum of three consecutive prime numbers is six.

No; there are two possibilities. Is it a Harshad number?

6 isn't a sum of three consecutive primes. The smallest 3 primes are 2, 3, and 5, and their sum is 10.

Once upon a time, people considered 1 to be a prime, but eventually they realized that everything works out more simply if the definition excludes it.

I know the answer!! Really, I do. Of course, I was caching with Nylimb today, so I guess that's cheating. frown


Whoops, no I don't. Really, I don't. redface

I don't know why I lost track of the original topic, but for some reason I was thinking 100 puzzle caches instead of 500. So yes, there are two possibilities, 371 and 407. If it is a Harshad number that would be 407.
