COMMENTS

Start with 0; at n-th step, write down what is in the sequence so far.

"Look and Say" how many time each integer (in increasing order), <= max {existing terms} appear in the sequence. Then concatenate. Start with 0.

Sequence's graph looks roughly like that of A080096

FORMULA

Conjectures: a(n) < 2*sqrt(n); limit as n goes to infinity Max( a(k) : 1<=k<=n)/sqrt(n) exist = 2 - Benoit Cloitre (benoit7848c(AT)orange.fr), Jan 28 2003

EXAMPLE

Write 0, thus having 1 0, thus having 2 0's and 1 1, thus having 3 0's and 3 1's and 1 2, etc. 0; 1,0; 2,0,1,1; 3,0,3,1,1,2; ...
