%N Numbers n such that n equals the sum of its digits raised to the consecutive powers (1,2,3,...).

%C Lemma: The sequence is finite with all terms in the sequence having at most 22 digits. Proof: Let n be an m-digit natural number in the sequence for some m. Then 10^(m-1)<=n and n<=9+9^2+...9^m = 9(9^m-1)/8<(9^(m+1))/8. Thus 10^(m-1)<(9^(m+1))/8. Taking logarithms of both sides and solving yields m<22.97 QED. Note proof is identical to that for A208130.
