Comments

A109002 and A178500 give record values and where they occur: A109002(n+1)=a(A178500(n)) and a(m)<A109002(n+1) for m<A178500(n). - Reinhard Zumkeller, May 28 2010

If n is divisible by 3, so is a(n). The same goes for 9. - Alonso del Arte, Dec 01 2011

For n > 0, a(n-1) consists of the A055642(n) least significant digits of the 10-adic integer -n. - Stefano Spezia, Jan 21 2021

Formula

a(n) = if n<10 then 9 - n else 10*a([n/10]) + 9 - n mod 10. - Reinhard Zumkeller, Jan 20 2010

a(n) <= 9n - 1. - Charles R Greathouse IV, Nov 15 2022

Example

a(7) = 2 = 10 - 1 -7. a(123) = 1000 -1 -123 = 876.
