triadic prime
(another Prime Pages' Glossary entries)
The Prime Glossary
Glossary: Prime Pages: Top 5000: A triadic (or 3-way) prime is one which is invariant upon reflection only along the line they are written on, so the digits may be 0, 1, 3, and 8. (Trigg called these palindromic reflectable in [Trigg83].) A large example of this kind is
10...0111013101110...01
where each string of zeros (0...0) is 2509 zeros long!
