COMMENTS
Number of endpoints: 0,8 - zero, 6,9 - one, 1,2,3,5 - two, 4,7 - four. - Michael B. Porter, Oct 28 2017
FORMULA
a(10*n + d) = a(n) + e where e is the number of endpoints of single digit d. - David A. Corneth, Oct 28 2017
EXAMPLE
The digit 1 has two endpoints, and the digit 8 has no endpoints, so a(18) = 2. - Michael B. Porter, Oct 28 2017
