%F a(n) = floor(log_10(r) + (10^n-2)*log_10(x)) + 1 for n >= 1, where x is the positive real root of the tetranacci limit equation x^4 - x^3 - x^2 - x - 1 = 0, x = 1.92756... and r is the positive real root of the tetranacci auxiliary equation 563r^4 - 20r^2 - 5r - 1 = 0, r = 0.293813... - Herman Jamke (hermanjamke(AT)fastmail.fm), May 01 2007

%e Let t(n) = A000078(n). Then we have t(1) = 0, t(10) = 56, t(100) = 2505471397838180985096739296, with respectively 1, 2, 28 and 284 digits.
