COMMENTS
| If (n-1)-th term is divisible by 2^n, then n-th term begins with a 4. If not, then n-th term begins with a 3.
Proof of conjecture that a(n) ends with a(n-1): If a(n) is divisible by 2^n, then a(n) is divisible by 2^(n-1), so a(n)-k*10^(n-1) is divisible by 2^(n-1) for integer k, but if k is first digit of a(n) then a(n)-k*10^(n-1) is an n-1 digit number made up of 3s and 4s and divisible by 2^(n-1) and so must be a(n-1).

FORMULA
| a(n)=a(n-1)+10^(n-1)*(4-[a(n-1)/2^(n-1) mod 2]) i.e. a(n) ends with a(n-1).
