%C Equals the self-convolution 5th power of A106223. What is the frequency of occurrence of the nonzero digits?

%F A(z)=0 at z=-0.1999361633111821182995648612577212067...

%e A(x) = 1 + 5*x + x^5 + 3*x^10 + x^15 + 4*x^20 + x^35 +...

%e A(x)^(1/5) = 1 + x - 2*x^2 + 6*x^3 - 21*x^4 + 80*x^5 - 320*x^6 +-...

%e A106223 = {1,1,-2,6,-21,80,-320,1326,-5637,24434,...}.
