COMMENTS
Related to a problem posed by Google and discussed on the MathWorld link.
This is the complete list of all 13 positive numbers n such that n is equal to the number of 2's in the decimal digits of all numbers <= n. - Daniel Hirschberg (dan(AT)ics.uci.edu), May 05 2007

EXAMPLE
a(1) = 28263827 since writing out all numbers from 0 to 28263827 requires that 28263827 2's be used and since 28263827 is the first such positive integer.
a(4) = 500000000 because the number of 2's in the decimal digits of the numbers from 1 to 500000000 is 500000000 and this is the 4th such number.
