Starting with a(1) = 1, a(n) = smallest nonnegative integer not yet in the sequence such that the first digit of a(n) is the last digit of a(n-1) plus or minus 1, with preference given to -1 when possible. The digit 0 is not allowed.

%N Starting with a(1) = 1, a(n) = smallest nonnegative integer not yet in the sequence such that the first digit of a(n) is the last digit of a(n-1) plus or minus 1, with preference given to -1 when possible. The digit 0 is not allowed.

%C If a(n-1) ends in 1, a(n) must begin with 2 (i.e., a forced increase by 1).

%C There are no numbers in the sequence with first digit 9.

%e 11 is followed by 21 in the sequence since it can't be followed by a number starting with 0.

%Y Cf. A288946.
