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”).

%N Whole number sieve of e.
%C Find the first occurrence of 0 (the first whole number) in the digits of e (only 35 digits in this illustration):
%C 27182818284590452353602874713526625..., and replace it with a space:
%C 2718281828459 452353602874713526625... Repeat the process with the next whole number, 1:
%C 27 8281828459 452353602874713526625... Then 2:
%C 7 8281828459 452353602874713526625... Then 3:
%C 7 8281828459 452 53602874713526625... Then 4,5,6,7, etc., until the first occurrence of every counting number is eliminated from the digits of e.
%C 28 2 02 5 6 ... Then consolidate gaps between the remaining digits into a single comma:
%C 28,2,2,5,6,9,24,9,9,57,9,6,6,3,5,2,... to produce the first terms in the whole number sieve of e.
