%N a(0) = 0; for n >= 1, a(n) = A000035(n) + a(A257684(n)); in the factorial representation of n the number of digits with maximal possible value allowed in its location.
%C In the factorial representation of n, given as {d_k, ..., d_3, d_2, d_1}, the maximal allowed digit for any position j is j. This sequence gives the number of digits in the whole representation [A007623(n)] that attain that maximum allowed value.

%F a(0) = 0; for n >= 1, a(n) = A000035(n) + a(A257684(n)).
%F Other identities. For all n >= 1:
%F a(n!-1) = n-1. [n!-1 also gives the first position where n-1 occurs.]
%e For n=19, which has factorial representation "301", the digits at position 1 and 3, namely "1" and "3" are equal to their one-based position index, in other words, the maximal digits allowed in those positions (while "0" at position 2 is not), thus a(19) = 2.
