A309440 The number of digits of the greatest product from addends that sum up to 10^n. 0

%N The number of digits of the greatest product from addends that sum up to 10^n.

%F a(n) = 1 + floor(log_10(36) + 10*log_10(27)*R_(n-1)), R_k being the k-th repunit, i.e., 111...111 with only digit 1 appearing k times.

%e The greatest product of numbers that sum up to 10 is 2*2*3*3 = 36 which has 2 digits. Thus a(1) = 2.

%e The greatest product of numbers that sum up to 100 is 2*2*3^(32) ~ 7.4*10^15 which has 16 digits. Hence a(2) = 16.

%e The greatest product of numbers that sum up to 1000 is 2*2*3^(332) ~ 1.0*10^159 which has 160 digits. Therefore a(3) = 160.

%o (PARI) a(n) = 1 + floor(log(4)/log(10) + ((10^n-1)/3-1)*log(3)/log(10)); \\ _Jinyuan Wang_, Aug 03 2019
