COMMENTS

The selvage number, x = sum{k=1..inf} a(k)/10^k, is a normal number, but it is not known whether or not x is irrational. Is this sequence periodic?

Normal numbers are always irrational. [From Charles R Greathouse IV, Nov 12 2010]

FORMULA

a(n) = floor[10*(n*x)] (Mod 10), where x = sum{k=1..inf} a(k)/10^k.

EXAMPLE

a(7) = 8 since floor(10*(7*x)) = 8, x=.12346789123467890234578902345789013456890134568901...
