COMMENTS
a(n) is the n-th Fibonacci number concatenated with itself; concatenation A000045.
Also, the quotient of a(n) divided by the n-th Fibonacci number is 10^d(n)+1, where d(n) is the number of digits in the n-th Fibonacci number (A060384).

FORMULA
a(n) = A000045(n)*(10^A060384(n)+1). - Robert Israel, Nov 16 2014
EXAMPLE
The 7th Fibonacci number, 13, is concatenated with itself to become a(7) = 1313.
MAPLE
A:= proc(n)
