Repeated Digit Primes

Question

Another sequence, another challenge.*

Definition

A prime p is in this sequence, let's call it A, iff for every digit d in p's decimal expansion, you replace d with d copies of d and the resulting integer is still prime; zeros are not permitted.

For example, 11 is trivially in this sequence (it's the first number, incidentally). Next in the sequence is 31, because 3331 is also prime; then 53 because 55555333 is also prime, and so on.

Challenge

Given an input n, return A(n), i.e. the nth item in this sequence.

Examples

Here are the first 20 terms to get you started. This is A057628 on OEIS.

11, 31, 53, 131, 149, 223, 283, 311, 313, 331, 397, 463, 641, 691, 937, 941, 1439, 1511, 1741, 1871

This means A(0) = 11, A(1) = 31, etc., when using zero indexing.

Rules

• You can choose zero- or one-based indexing; please specify in your answer which.
• Instead of returning just the nth element, you can instead choose to return the first n terms.
• You can assume that the input/output will not be larger than your language's native integer format; however, the repeated-digit prime may be larger than your language's native format, so that will need to be accounted for.
• For example, 1871, the last number of the examples, has a corresponding prime of 18888888877777771, which is quite a bit larger than standard INT32.
• Either a full program or a function are acceptable. If a function, you can return the output rather than printing it.
• Output can be to the console, returned from a function, displayed in an alert popup, etc.
• Standard loopholes are forbidden.
• This is code-golf so all usual golfing rules apply, and the shortest code (in bytes) wins.

*To be fair, I had come up with the first few terms of the sequence just playing around with some numbers, and then went to OEIS to get the rest of the sequence.

Erik the Outgolfer saved a byte. Using ṗ instead of εp would save another byte, but that makes the program so slow it times our even for n = 2.

Uses 1-based input.

Explanation

The neatest golfing trick here (even though it only saves a couple of bytes) is that I'm using a primality test which gives 0 for composite n for n for non-composite n. That way, we don't have to use the result directly in a conditional, but we can pass it straight on to the next part that checks that the input doesn't contain any zeros.

/i\       Read all input in Ordinal mode (the usual way to read decimal input).
&w        Push the current IP position onto the return address stack (RAS)
          n times. This effectively begins our main loop. We will return
          here after each number we've checked, but whenever we come across
          a repeated digit prime (RDP), we will pop one copy of the address
          from the RAS, so that the loops ends once we've found n RDPs.

h.        Increment our main loop iterator X (initially an implicit zero on
          the empty stack) and duplicate it.
.         Make another copy.
.tz       Drop all factors less than X. This gives X for prime X and 1 for
          non-prime X.
~F        Check whether X divides this value. Of course, X divides X so this
          gives X for non-composite X. But X doesn't divide 1 (unless X is 1),
          so we get 0 for composite X. Call this Y.
0         Push a 0.
\         Switch to Ordinal mode.
F         Implicitly convert both to string and check whether Y contains 0.
$/K       If it does, return to the w. Either way, switch back to Cardinal mode.
          Note that the only numbers that get to this point are 1 and prime
          numbers which don't contain 0. It's fine that we let 1 through here,
          because we'll use a proper primality test for the digit-expanded
          version later on.
.!        Store a copy of X on the tape. Let's call the copy that remains on
          the stack Z, which we're now decomposing into digits while expanding
          them.
w         Push the current IP position to the RAS. This marks the beginning
          of an inner loop over the digits of Z.

  .a%       Duplicate Z and retrieve its last digit D by taking Z % 10.
  \./       Duplicate D (in Ordinal mode but that doesn't matter).
  &.        Duplicate D, D times. So we end up with D+1 copies of D.
  ,         Pop the top D and pull up the Dth stack element, which is Z.
  a:        Discard the last digit by taking Z / 10.
  .$K       If Z is zero now, skip the K and end the inner loop, otherwise
            repeat the inner loop.
;         Discard the 0 (what used to be Z).
          We now have D copies of each digit D on the stack, but the digits
          were processed in reverse order, so the last digit is at the bottom.
d&        Repeat the next command once for each stack element.
\*        Concatenate in Ordinal mode. This joins all the digits on the
          stack into a single string.
R         Reverse that string. This is the digit-expanded version of X.
/         Switch back to Cardinal mode.
W         Pop the inner loop's return address from the RAS. We could have done
          this right after the most recent K, but putting it here helps lining
          up the two Ordinal sections in the program layout.
.tzt      Is the digit-expanded number a prime?
$W        If so, we've found an RDP. Pop one copy of the main loop address 
          from the RAS.
g         Recover the current value of X from the top left grid cell.
K         Jump back to the w if any copies of the return address are left 
          on the RAS. Otherwise, we leave the main loop.
/o        Implicitly convert the result to a string and print it in
          Ordinal mode.
          The IP will then bounce off the top right corner and start
          travelling through the program in reverse. Whatever it does
          on the way back is utter nonsense, but it will eventually get
          back to the division (:). The top of the stack will be zero
          at that point and therefore the division terminates the program.

• Saved 27 bytes thanks to ovs; using xrange instead of range, thus circumventing a MemoryError and compacting the prime function; improving integer index counting.
• Saved two bytes; using binary pipe or operations | to save bytes over or.
• Saved two bytes; inverting the prime function and doing some further logic manipulation.
• Saved a byte; using ~- instead of 0** to invert the existence of a zero in j, as & followed by a true boolean isolates this value's boolean property.
• Saved a byte thanks to Lynn; golfing ~-A&B&C (equivalent to (not A) and B and C) with A, B, C being booleans to A<B==C.

Explanation

Defines a main function f which takes in an integer index, n, and a by default set value j, the current sequence canditate (intitiated to 9 to improve performance whilst keeping program size) and a prime checking function.
As long as n is non-zero, the n-th sequence entry is not yet found. Thus j is incremented and n is decremented by one iff j is a number which satisfies the required properties.
When the loop ends, j is the n-th sequence entry and thus printed.

Rather lengthy as Pyth doesn’t have a Decimal Expansion built-in.

• Take the first N positive integers (.f), that:
  • Have all the digits truthy (.AKjZT), and (&)...
  • The vectorized multiplication of their string representation with their digits (*VK`Z), joined together and converted to an integer (ss) are prime (P_), and (&)...
  • That are primes themselves (P_).

Perl 6, 51 bytes

{(grep {!/0/&is-prime $_&S:g/./{$/x$/}/},2..*)[$_]}

Try it online!

• grep {...}, 2..* filters the infinite sequence of natural numbers starting from 2 using the predicate function between the braces. (...)[$_] indexes into this filtered list using the function's argument $_.
• !/0/ filters out numbers that contain a zero digit.
• S:g/./{$/ x $/}/ replicates each digit in the test number's decimal expansion.
• is-prime $_ & S:g/./{$/ x $/}/ calls the built-in is-prime function with an and-junction of $_, the test number, and the number resulting from replicating its digits. The function will return true if both members of the and-junction are prime.

f=.[:1&p:(*@(*/)*x:@#~)&.(10&#.inv)
[:{.(4&p:@{.@]([,]+f@[){:@])^:([>{:@])^:_&2 0

This is one of those situations for which I haven't yet found a good J solution.

Nevertheless, I post this in hopes of learning something new.

f tells us if a given number is a "repeated digit prime". It breaks down as follows:

[:1&p:                               is the following a prime?
      (*@                            the signum of...
         (*/)                        the product of the digits
             *                       times...
              x:@                    force extended precision of...
                 #~)                 self-duplicated digits
                    &.               "Under": perform this, then perform its inverse at the end
                      (10&#.inv)     convert to a list of digits

And finally the main Do... While verb, with its pesky, seemingly unavoidable boilerplate, which arises from the fact that we need to use a list to store our progress, which requires both "current prime" and "found so far" registers, since our left argument is already taken to store the stopping condition, ie, n. This means that we must use many precious bytes for the simple task of specifying args ([ and ]) and unpacking our 2 element list ({. and {:):

[:{.                                                take the first element of the final result, of the following Do... While:
