COMMENTS
Do not confuse with the digital root of n, A010888 (first term that differs is a(19)).
Also the fixed point of the morphism 0 -> {0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9}, 1 -> {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10}, 2 -> {2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11}, etc. - Robert G. Wilson v, Jul 27 2006
For n < 100 equal to (floor(n/10) + n mod 10) = A076314(n). - Hieronymus Fischer, Jun 17 2007
It appears that a(n) is the position of 10*n in the ordered set of numbers obtained by inserting/placing one digit anywhere in the digits of n (except a zero before 1st digit). For instance, for n=2, the resulting set is (12, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25, 26, 27, 28, 29, 32, 42, 52, 62, 72, 82, 92) where 20 is at position 2, so a(2) = 2. - Michel Marcus, Aug 01 2022
Also the total number of beads required to represent n on a Russian abacus (schoty). - P. Christopher Staecker, Mar 31 2023
a(n) / a(2n) <= 5 with equality iff n is in A169964, while a(n) / a(3n) is unbounded, since if n = (10^k + 2)/3, then a(n) = 3*k+1, a(3n) = 3, so a(n) / a(3n) = k + 1/3 -> oo when k->oo (see Diophante link). - Bernard Schott, Apr 29 2023

FORMULA
a(A051885(n)) = n.
a(n) <= 9(log_10(n)+1). - Stefan Steinerberger, Mar 24 2006
From Benoit Cloitre, Dec 19 2002: (Start)
a(0) = 0, a(10n+i) = a(n) + i for 0 <= i <= 9.
a(n) = n - 9*(Sum_{k > 0} floor(n/10^k)) = n - 9*A054899(n). (End)
From Hieronymus Fischer, Jun 17 2007: (Start)
G.f. g(x) = Sum_{k > 0, (x^k - x^(k+10^k) - 9x^(10^k))/(1-x^(10^k))}/(1-x).
a(n) = n - 9*Sum_{10 <= k <= n} Sum_{j|k, j >= 10} floor(log_10(j)) - floor(log_10(j-1)). (End)
From Hieronymus Fischer, Jun 25 2007: (Start)
The g.f. can be expressed in terms of a Lambert series, in that g(x) = (x/(1-x) - 9*L[b(k)](x))/(1-x) where L[b(k)](x) = sum{k >= 0, b(k)*x^k/(1-x^k)} is a Lambert series with b(k) = 1, if k > 1 is a power of 10, else b(k) = 0.
G.f.: g(x) = (Sum_{k > 0} (1 - 9*c(k))*x^k)/(1-x), where c(k) = Sum_{j > 1, j|k} floor(log_10(j)) - floor(log_10(j-1)).
a(n) = n - 9*Sum_{0 < k <= floor(log_10(n))} a(floor(n/10^k))*10^(k-1). (End)
From Hieronymus Fischer, Oct 06 2007: (Start)
a(n) <= 9*(1 + floor(log_10(n)), equality holds for n = 10^m - 1, m > 0.
lim sup (a(n) - 9*log_10(n)) = 0 for n -> oo.
lim inf (a(n+1) - a(n) + 9*log_10(n)) = 1 for n -> oo. (End)
a(n) = A138530(n, 10) for n > 9. - Reinhard Zumkeller, Mar 26 2008
a(A058369(n)) = A004159(A058369(n)); a(A000290(n)) = A004159(n). - Reinhard Zumkeller, Apr 25 2009
a(n) mod 2 = A179081(n). - Reinhard Zumkeller, Jun 28 2010
a(n) <= 9*log_10(n+1). - Vladimir Shevelev, Jun 01 2011
a(n) = a(n-1) + a(n-10) - a(n-11), for n < 100. - Alexander R. Povolotsky, Oct 09 2011
a(n) = Sum_{k >= 0} A031298(n, k). - Philippe Deléham, Oct 21 2011
a(n) = a(n mod b^k) + a(floor(n/b^k)), for all k >= 0. - Hieronymus Fischer, Mar 24 2014
Sum_{n>=1} a(n)/(n*(n+1)) = 10*log(10)/9 (Shallit, 1984). - Amiram Eldar, Jun 03 2021
EXAMPLE
a(123) = 1 + 2 + 3 = 6, a(9875) = 9 + 8 + 7 + 5 = 29.
