Year-end appeal: Please make a donation to the OEIS Foundation to support ongoing development and maintenance of the OEIS. We are now in our 61st year, we have over 378,000 sequences, and we’ve reached 11,000 citations (which often say “discovered thanks to the OEIS”).

%C The last term of this sequence is a(111111111) = 999999999.

%e 300 belongs to the sequence since its initial digit is 3 and the number has three digits. 3001 does not belong to the sequence since its initial digit is 3, but the number has four digits in total.
