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”).

COMMENTS
In the definition of the sequence, consider the number of occurrences of string s in string t to be the number of positions within t that have a perfect match with the digits in s. Thus the number of occurrences of 11 in 1111 is 3 and not 2.
EXAMPLE
a(12) is 1 as there is one occurrence of "12" in the string formed by concatenating a(1) through a(11).
