FORMULA
For n >= 1, a(n) = 2..21..1; n_times 2 followed with n_times 1.
a(n) = A000217(n_times 6), that is a(n) = A000217(A002280(n)).
a(n) = 1/9 * (2*10^n + 1) * (10^n - 1), that is a(n) = 1/9 * A199682(n) * A002283(n).
From Colin Barker, Sep 13 2018: (Start)
G.f.: 3*x*(7 - 40*x) / ((1 - x)*(1 - 10*x)*(1 - 100*x)).
a(n) = 111*a(n-1) - 1110*a(n-2) + 1000*a(n-3) for n>3
(End)
EXAMPLE
a(1) = A000217(6) = 21; a(2) = A000217(66) = 2211; a(3) = A000217(666) = 222111.
