A098320
a(1)=0; for i>=1, a(i+1)=position of first occurrence of a(i) in decimal expansion of 1/e.

COMMENTS
Recurrence sequence based on positions of digits in decimal places of 1/e.
EXAMPLE
So for example, a(2)=27 because 27th digit of 1/e after decimal point is 0.
a(3)=88 because 88th decimal digit of 1/e is where 27 appears,
a(4)=308 because 308th to 309th decimal digits of 1/e form "88" and so on.
CROSSREFS
Cf. A097614 for the analogous recurrence sequence for Pi, A098266 for e recurrence, A098289 for log(2) recurrence, A098290 for Zeta(3) recurrence, A098319 for 1/Pi recurrence. See A068985 for digits of 1/e.
