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”).

A243824
Two-column array A(n,s) of pairs (n,s) read by row where s is the smallest seed number such that the Reverse and Add! trajectory of s contains n (excluding cases where n=s).

EXAMPLE
A(10,1)=16 is in the array because 16 is the 9th number appearing in the Reverse and Add! trajectory of a smaller number.
A(10,2)=1 is in the array because 1 + 1 = 2, 2 + 2 = 4, 4 + 4 = 8, 8 + 8 = 16, so 1 is the smallest seed number whose Reverse and Add! trajectory contains 16.
