A155817 Sequence having the property that a(n) is the sum of the first a(n) digits of the sequence 2

%N Sequence having the property that a(n) is the sum of the first a(n) digits of the sequence

%C From an idea of _Eric Angelini_. The condition of strict monotonicity is dropped with respect to A154328.

%H Jon Schoenfield, <a href="/A155817/b155817.txt">Table of n, a(n) for n = 1..1000</a>

%e We start with a(1)=1. The next term a(2) cannot be 2,...,9 because the sum of these digits would be larger: the least possibility not leading to a contradiction is a(2)=10. Then we can go on with a(3)=2 because the sum of the first two digits, 1=a(1) and 1 from 10=a(2), is equal to 2. Then a(4)=4 because sum of the first 4 digits, 1+1+0+2, is equal to 4.

%Y Cf. A154328

%K nonn,base

%O 1,2
