%N Numbers j such that there exists a number i <= j with the property that i+j and i*j have the same decimal digits in reverse order.
%C The pairs (i,j) are (2,2), (9,9), (3,24), (2,47), (2,497), (2,4997), (2,49997), (2,499997), (2,4999997), (2,49999997), ...
%C These pairs, together with all pairs (2,4999..997), comprise the complete list.
