COMMENTS
| a(5k+3) = 0. The maximum value of a(n) is 6. If digits 1 to 9 are prefixed to 2n-1, exactly 3 numbers == 0 (mod 3). e.g. If (2n-10 == 0 (mod 3) then these are obtained on prefixing 3, 6 and 9. If (2n-1) == 1 (mod 3) then these are obtained on prefixing 2, 5 and 8. If (2n-1) == 2 (mod 3) then these are obtained on prefixing 1, 4 and 7.
Subsidiary sequences: (i) Start of the first occurrence of n successive zeros in this sequence. In the following subsequences the occurrence of a zero in between is to be neglected. (As a(3) onwards every fifth term is zero.) (ii) Start of the first occurrence of n successive ones in this sequence. etc. up to 6. (iii) Index of occurrence of 6. (iv)Index of occurrence of 5. etc.
