%N Decimal expansion of the seventh (of 10) decimal selvage number; the n-th digit of a decimal selvage number, x, is equal to the tenths digit of n*x.

%C In other words, this constant satisfies x = Sum_{n>=0} ( floor(10*n*x) (mod 10) ) / 10^n.

%C The seventh selvage number is equal to the complement of the fourth selvage number (A071792): s_7 = 1 - s_4.

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

%F a(n) = 9 - A071792(n).
