%N Number of powers of 3 having exactly n digits '0' (in base 10), conjectured.

%C a(0) = 23 is the number of terms in A030700 and in A238939, which include the power 3^0 = 1.

%C These are the row lengths of A305933. It remains an open problem to provide a proof that these rows are complete (as for all terms of A020665), but the search has been pushed to many orders of magnitude beyond the largest known term, and the probability of finding an additional term is vanishingly small, cf. Khovanova link.

%o (PARI) A305943(n,M=99*n+199)=sum(k=0,M,#select(d->!d,digits(3^k))==n)

%Y Cf. A030700 = row 0 of A305933: k s.th. 3^k has no '0'; A238939: these powers 3^k.

%Y Cf. A305931, A305934: powers of 3 with at least / exactly one '0'.

%Y Cf. A020665: largest k such that n^k has no '0's.

%Y Cf. A063555 = column 1 of A305933: least k such that 3^k has n digits '0' in base 10.

%Y Cf. A305942 (analog for 2^k), ..., A305947, A305938, A305939 (analog for 9^k).
