Default interlaced primes

An "interlaced prime" is a prime number such that
the two integers obtained by taking all odd indexed
digits and all even indexed digits are also prime.

For example,

3779 is an interlaced prime, because 37 and 79 are prime.
233 is one, because 23 and 3 are.
1239 isn't one, because it's not prime, though 13 and 29 are.

The puzzle is: find a 100, 200, and 300 digit interlaced prime.

I vote straight to 10000 How are you generating these numbers? By my estimate, if you have about 100 random primes of half size with the same (mod 3), then with the 100*99 combinations you get, should yield about 1-2 full size primes.

You got it. Get some half size numbers, interlace them with a perl script and pfgw. With 10,000-digits, one should also prove the 10,000-digit prime. ;-)
Not that it would be too hard. Piece of cake.

Here's a 3,000-digit one: 11*10^2998+5262550199

And a 5000-digit prime: 11*10^4998+231062857013
(two 2500s: 10^2499+216871 and 10^2499+302503)

And a 10,000-digit (PR)prime: 11*10^9998+1354541841513 (maybe will prove, maybe not ;-)
(The interlaced 5000s: 10^4999+344811 and 10^4999+1551453)

...and 11*10^9998+10600811061999, to boot.
