%N Underline the k-th digit of a(n), k being the leftmost digit of a(n). This is the lexicographically earliest sequence of distinct terms > 0 such that the succession of underlined digits is the succession of the sequence's digits themselves.

%e The leftmost digit of a(1) = 1 is 1: this digit underlines the 1st digit of a(1) which is (1);
%e The leftmost digit of a(2) = 10 is 1: this digit underlines the 1st digit of a(2) which is (1);
%e The leftmost digit of a(3) = 20 is 2: this digit underlines the 2nd digit of a(3) which is (0);
%e The leftmost digit of a(4) = 22 is 2: this digit underlines the 2nd digit of a(4) which is (2);
%e The leftmost digit of a(5) = 200 is 2: this digit underlines the 2nd digit of a(5) which is (0);
%e The leftmost digit of a(6) = 220 is 2: this digit underlines the 2nd digit of a(6) which is (2); etc.
%e We see that the parenthesized digits at the end of each line reproduce the succession of the original digits.
