COMMENTS
The T operator numerically summarizes the frequency of digits 0 through 7 in that order when they occur in a number. The numbers and the frequency are written in base 8.
These are all autobiographical numbers in base 8 which lead to a fixed-point or belong to a cycle.
44 numbers are fixed-points. There are 7 cycles with length 2 and three cycles with length 3.

EXAMPLE
10213223 contains one 0, two 1's, three 2's and two 3's, so T(10213223) = 1 0 2 1 3 2 2 3, and this is fixed under T.
103142132415 and 104122232415 belong to the cycle of length 2, so T(T(103142132415)) = T(1 0 4 1 2 2 2 3 2 4 1 5) = 1 0 3 1 4 2 1 3 2 4 1 5.
