OFFSET
1,1
COMMENTS
The offset is 1 because the true offset would be 5.431653469... * 10^15151335, which is too large to be represented properly in the OEIS.

The above example line shows the first one hundred decimal digits and the last one hundred digits with the number of unrepresented digits in parenthesis.
The final one hundred digits where computed by: PowerMod[8, 8^8^8, 10^100].
