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”).

Lengths of the loop of the sequences "Sum of last n digits" beginning with (n-1) zeros followed by digit 8.

%N Lengths of the loop of the sequences "Sum of last n digits" beginning with (n-1) zeros followed by digit 8.

%e a(4)=50 because the sum of last four *digits* of the sequence beginning with 0,0,0,8, (three zeros followed by a 8) enters in a loop whose length is 50 terms; so a(4)=50

%e a(5)=171 because "Sum of last five digits" beginning with 0,0,0,0,8 enters in a cycle of 171 terms.
