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”).

Start the sequence with a(1) = 1 and read the digits one by one from there. The sequence is always extended with the sum d + k, d being the digit read and k the number of d digits present so far in the sequence.

%e The sequence starts with a(1) = 1.

%e We read this 1, see that there is only one digit 1 so far in the sequence, thus k = 1; we have then d + k = (1 + 1) = 2 and this 2 becomes a(2);

%e We read this 2, see that there is only one digit 2 so far in the sequence, thus k = 1; we have then d + k = (2 + 1) = 3 and this 3 becomes a(3);

%e We read this 3, see that there is only one digit 3 so far in the sequence, thus k = 1; we have then d + k = (3 + 1) = 4 and this 4 becomes a(4);

%e ...

%e We now read the first digit of a(10) = 10, see that this 1 is the 2nd digit 1 so far in the sequence, thus k = 2; we have then d + k = (1 + 2) = 3 and this 3 becomes a(11);

%e We now read the second digit of a(10) = 10, see that this 0 is the 1st digit 0 so far in the sequence, thus k = 1; we have then d + k = 1 and this 1 becomes a(12);

%e We now read the single digit of a(11) = 3; we see that this 3 is the 2nd digit 3 so far in the sequence, thus k = 2; we have then d + k = 5 and this 5 becomes a(13); etc.

%Y Cf. A325722 where the same idea is developed, but with d*k instead of d+k. See also A308232 for the concatenation kd.
