Comments

Write the natural numbers as an infinite sequence of digits, starting at the left; and count the digits of each group of "2"'s you encounter (the smallest "groups" have one "2").

Example

a(1)=1: the first "2" of the counting numbers, isolated.
a(2)=1: the second "2", second digit of number 12, isolated.
a(3)=1 the first digit of number 20, isolated.
a(4)=1: the first digit of number 21, isolated.
a(5)=3: two "2"'s of 22 followed by one "2" of 23 = three "2"'s, the next group of "2"'s.
