The single-digit numbers 0, ..., 9 are here excluded by convention although they also ("voidly") satisfy the definition and therefore logically should be terms of this sequence. This is in contrast to the Friedman numbers A036057 where the construction also allows concatenation of digits but then of course has to exclude the case where only concatenation of the digits is used, which excludes the single-digit terms. - M.

A subset of the orderly Friedman numbers A080035. - M. F. Hasler, Jan 04 2015

736 = 7 + 3^6.
2592 = 2^5*9^2.
11664 = 1*1*6^6/4.
15617 = 1*5^6 - 1 - 7.
