FORMULA
Conjecture: | a(3n+3)/10 - a(3n) | <= 1 for n >= 1; specifically:
a(3n + 1) = 9*10^n + 4*(10^n-1)/9 (= 94...4 with n '4's), and
a(3n + 3) = 48...86 with n '8's, for n >= 1.
EXAMPLE
After the chain {0, 1} of length A341756(1) = A341755(0) = 2 starting at a(1) = 0, the first nontrivial chain is {9, 10, 11, 12, 13} with A341756(1) = 5 members starting at a(2) = 9.
The chain of length 48 starting at 486 contains a somewhat "trivial" chain starting at 500: the shared digit of the first 10 terms is the '0' of 10** and 50*, the shared digit of the next 10-11 terms is the '1' of 10** and 51*.
