%N Smallest number whose digital sum is n^3.

%C Except for the leading digit all the other digits of a(n), n >= 1, are 9's and the leading digit is 1 or 8. (This is because the digital sum of n^3 is congruent to 0, 1, or 8 mod 9, so the best we can do is use as many 9's as possible, prefixed if necessary by 1 or 8. - _N. J. A. Sloane_, Jul 19 2018)
