%N Written in base 5, n ends in a(n) consecutive nonzero digits.
%C Sequences A215879, A215883 and A215887 are the base 3, 4 and 10 analogs, while the base 2 analog of this sequence coincides (up to a shift in the index) with the 2-adic valuation A007814, cf. comments there.

%e The numbers 24,...,31 are written in base 5 as 44,100,101,102,103,104,110,111 and thus end in a string of a(24..31)=2,0,1,1,1,1,0,3 nonzero digits.
