A327664 a(n) is the least base >= 2 such that for any k in the range 0..n-1, the sum of digits of k and the sum of digits of n differ for at least one base b in the range 2..a(n). 2

%F a(n) = 2 iff n belongs to A000225.

%F a(n) <= A327667(n).

%e For n = 9:

%e - the sum of digits of 9 is distinct to that of 0, 1, 2, 4, 7, 8 in base 2,

%e - the sum of digits of 9 equals that of 5 and 6 in base 2, but is distinct in base 3,

%e - the sum of digits of 9 equals that of 3 in bases 2, 3 and 4, but is distinct in base 5,

%e - hence a(9) = 5.

%o (PARI) a(n) = { my (v=2); for (k=1, n-1, for (p=2, oo, if (sumdigits(n,p)!=sumdigits(k,p), v=max(v,p); break))); return (v) }
