A320572 The smallest integer m such that each nonzero digit appears in the decimal representation of the sequence n^1, n^2, ..., n^x, where 1 <= x <= m, or 0 if no such m exists. 1

%N The smallest integer m such that each nonzero digit appears in the decimal representation of the sequence n^1, n^2, ..., n^x, where 1 <= x <= m, or 0 if no such m exists.

%C 7 is the only fixed point less than 10.

%F a(n) = a(10*n).

%F a(n) <= A090493(n). - _Rémy Sigrist_, Oct 16 2018

%e For n=1, a(1) = 0, because all powers are identical to 1, and it is not possible to get any other digits.

%e For n=3, a(3) = 8 because the following are needed to use all nonzero digits: 3^1 = 3, 3^2 = 9, 3^3 = 27, 3^4 = 81, 3^5 = 243, 3^8 = 6561.

%e For n=10, a(10) = 0, because one can only get digits 0 and 1.

%t a[n_] := If[IntegerQ[Log10[n]], 0, Module[{s={0}, m=1}, While[Length[s]<10, s=DeleteDuplicates@Catenate[{s,IntegerDigits[n^m]}]; m++]; m-1]]; Array[a,100] (* _Amiram Eldar_, Nov 14 2018 *)
