%C This sequence shows only 0's and 1's. The lexicographically earliest sequence of distinct terms > 0 such that the concatenation of two successive terms form a palindrome in base 10 is A000042.

%e a(1) = 1, a(2) = 10, a(3) = 11 form the palindrome 11011 when concatenated;

%e a(2) = 10, a(3) = 11, a(4) = 101 form the palindrome 1011101 when concatenated;

%e a(3) = 11, a(4) = 101, a(5) = 10111 form the palindrome 1110110111 when concatenated;

%e a(4) = 101, a(5) = 10111, a(6) = 101101 form the palindrome 10110111101101 when concatenated; etc.
