A two digit Base-P integer N is such that the sum of the digits of a Base-P number K ( in base-P notation) is divisible by P(2P-3) where the magnitude of  K is equivalent to (P^N -  N)  in Base-10 (decimal) notation.
 (i)  For which P satisfying 5<=P<=25 do solutions exist?
 (ii)  If in addition,  N is expressible as the sum of two squares and the sum of  digits of  N is a prime number, would any solution  to the problem , corresponding to the  range of P in terms of Clause (i), still  exist?
