%N For any k, the cumulative sum a(1) + a(2) + a(3) + ... + a(k) shows at least a digit 4.

%C The sequence starts with a(1) = 4 and is always extended with the smallest integer not yet present that does not lead to a contradiction.

%C A permutation of the natural numbers.

%e 4 shows a digit 4, of course (k = 1)

%e 4 + 10 = 14 and 14 shows at least a digit 4 (k = 2)

%e 4 + 10 + 20 = 34 and 34 shows at least a digit 4 (k = 3)

%e 4 + 10 + 20 + 6 = 40 and 40 shows at least a digit 4 (k = 4)

%e 4 + 10 + 20 + 6 + 1 = 41 and 41 shows at least a digit 4 (k = 5)

%e 4 + 10 + 20 + 6 + 1 + 2 = 43 and 43 shows at least a digit 4 (k = 6)

%e ...

%Y Cf. A300015 (which is the lexicographic first sequence of positive integers without duplicate terms having this property).
