%N Number of digits in the decimal expansion of n.

%C From _Hieronymus Fischer_, Jun 08 2012: (Start)

%C For n > 0 the first differences of A117804.

%C The total number of digits necessary to write down all the numbers 0, 1, 2, ..., n is A117804(n+1). (End)

%C Here a(0) = 1, but a different common convention is to consider that the expansion of 0 in any base b > 0 has 0 terms and digits. - _M. F. Hasler_, Dec 07 2018
