Year-end appeal: Please make a donation to the OEIS Foundation to support ongoing development and maintenance of the OEIS. We are now in our 61st year, we have over 378,000 sequences, and we’ve reached 11,000 citations (which often say “discovered thanks to the OEIS”).

Start with S = {}. For m = 1, 2, 3, ... in turn, examine all 2^m m-bit strings u in arithmetic order. If u is not a substring of S, append the minimal number of 0's and 1's to S to remedy this. Sequence gives S.

%e We construct S as follows, starting with S = {}.

%e 0 is missing, so S = {0};

%e 1 is missing, so S = {0,1};

%e 00 is missing, so S = {0,1,0,0};

%e 01 and 10 are now visible, but 11 is missing, so S = {0,1,0,0,1,1};

%e 000 is missing, so S = {0,1,0,0,1,1,0,0,0}; etc.
