%C Digits are all in {0,1,2,3,4} after the first term.

%C The upper limit is A158624, 0.5265679578796997657885576975995789586775656...

%e 5^3 = 125 so the backward value is 0.521, 5^10 = 9765625, so backward value is 0.5265679. The lower limit of all values is a constant, which appears to be 0.521302330431131124210313300023141021034302...

%e From _N. J. A. Sloane_, May 11 2018 (Start)

%e To describe this another way: write down the decimal expansion of powers of 5:

%e 1

%e 5

%e 25

%e 125

%e 625

%e 3125

%e ...

%e keep going forever.

%e Write them backwards:

%e 1

%e 5

%e 52

%e 526

%e 5213

%e ...

%e After a while the beginning digits are all the same.

%e That's the sequence. (End)
