COMMENTS

This sequence was inspired by the 41st Wohascum County problem.
The distribution of the first 500 terms beginning with 0: 101, 43, 40, 42, 29, 49, 43, 53, 58, 42.
The distribution does not conform to Benford's / Zipf's law, but seems to be evenly distributed once multiples of ten are excluded.
