%N a(n) is the n-th term in sequence A_n, respecting the offset, or a(n) = -1 if A_n has fewer than n terms.

%C a(58) = A000058(58) = 192523...920807 (58669977298272603 digits) is too large to include in the b-file. - _Pontus von Brömssen_, May 19 2022

%C Comment from _N. J. A. Sloane_, Dec 26 2022 (Start)

%C Note that a(n) = -1 can arise in two ways: either A_n has fewer than n terms, or A_n has at least n terms, but its n-th term is -1.

%C Here is a summary of the terms with n <= 80.

%C a(n) = -1 occurs just twice, for n = 53 and 54, in both cases because the relevant New York subway lines do not have enough stops.

%C a(1) though a(65) are known, although a(58) = = 192523...920807 has 58669977298272603 digits.

%C a(66) is the first unknown value.

%C Also unknown for n <= 80 are a(67), a(72), a(74), a(75), a(76), and a(77) (counts of numbers <= 2^n represented by various quadratic forms; some of these do not even have b-files), and a(80), which like a(66) is a graph-theory question. (End)
