EXAMPLE

a(1) = 2 because two = 11 in unary (A000042) and its reversal 11 = 2. a(2) = 3 because three = 11 in base 2 (A007088) and its reversal 11 in base 2 = 3. a(3) = 15 because fifteen = 120 in base 3 (A007089) and its reversal 21 in base 3 = 7. a(4) = 8 -> 2. a(7) = 119 because 119 base 7 = 230 in base 7 (A007093) and its reversal 32 base 7 = 161.
