Since a Beprisque is a whole number that is consecutive and between a prime and a square, we look to the squares above 100 to begin our search. 121 is a square, but the the two odd numbers on either side of it (119 and 123) are not prime, so we check the next odd perfect square. (Why would we skip over 144?) 167 is prime and 169 is a square, so 168 is Beprisque, and is the first 3-digit Beprisque.
