%N Index in A002193 of start of first occurrence of at least n consecutive equal digits in the decimal expansion of sqrt(2) after the decimal point.
%C We index the digits of sqrt(2) = 1.4142135... starting with 1 (for the 1), 2 (for the 4), 3 (for the second 1), 4 (for the second 4), 5 (for the 2), and so on.
%C Find the index of the first digit of a run of n consecutive equal digits after the decimal point: this is a(n). For example, the "88" here 1414213562373095048801.. begins at the 19th digit, so a(2) = 19. - _N. J. A. Sloane_, Mar 20 2023
