Original definition: "Concatenate next digit at left hand end."
This is misleading, since the concatenation of 0 yields the same term (leading zeros vanish), but upon the next concatenation of 1, the 0 reappears - except for a(1), which according to that description should equal a(1)=10: It is surprising that in this only case where the 0 is indeed present, it disappears upon left-concatenation of the digit 1! - M. F. Hasler, Jan 13 2013
A definition which is also consistent is: Start with terms 0 and 1 and then concatenate the next digit at the left hand end. If the next digit is a zero, keep this zero in mind so that the following digit is a 1 preceding a 0.
The sequence terms are the terms of A057137 in reversed digit order. Based on this understanding, the anomaly for the indices 0 and 1 where the terms are 0 and 1 instead of 0 and 10 (what one would expect) becomes self-explaining. Also, the special behavior when the zero digit is encountered becomes clear.
Examples: a(3) = 321 = Reversal(A057137(3)),
a(10) = 987654321 = Reversal(A057137(10)) = Reversal(1234567890). (End)

FORMULA

a(n) = a(n-1) + 10^(n-1)*n - 10^n*floor(n/10) = A057139(n) mod 10^n.
a(n) = floor(((q/(10^10 - 1)) + q mod 10^(n mod 10))*10^(10*floor(n/10))), where q = 987654321. - Hieronymus Fischer, Jan 03 2013
G.f.: x(1-10(10x)^9 + 9(10x)^10)/((1-x) (1-10x)^2 (1-(10x)^10)). - Robert Israel, Jun 21 2017
