COMMENTS
The number of steps starts at 0, so palindromes (cf. A002113) are excluded. 53 is a record (cf. A065199) of the number of 'Reverse and Add' steps needed to reach a palindrome.
The first term not congruent 84 mod 99 is a(64) = 109902, thereafter the residues show no obvious pattern. - Klaus Brockhaus, Jul 14 2003
