%N Trajectory of 103 under the Reverse and Add! operation carried out in base 3, written in base 10.
%C 103 = A077405(0) is conjectured (cf. A066450) to be the smallest number such that the Reverse and Add! algorithm in base 3 does not lead to a palindrome. Its trajectory does not exhibit any recognizable regularity, so that the method by which the base-2 trajectories of 22 (cf. A061561), 77 (cf. A075253), 442 (cf. A075268) etc. as well as the base-4 trajectories of 318 (cf. A075153), 266718 (cf. A075466), 270798 (cf. A075467) etc. can be proved to be palindrome-free (cf. Links), is not applicable here.
