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”).

A345964
At digit-position a(n) in the sequence starts the sum a(n) + 1. This is the lexicographically earliest sequence of distinct positive terms with this property. See the Comments section for more explanations.

COMMENTS
A "digit-position" (DP in short) is the rank of a digit in the succession of the digits of the sequence. At DP#1 we find the digit "2" here. At DP#9 we find "1" (the 1 of 100), etc.
A term > 9 uses more than one digit when 1 is added to it (9 + 1 = 10 uses two digits for instance; 99 + 1 = 100 uses three digits, etc.) The convention here says that the sum a(n) + 1 is visible in the sequence at DP#a(n). This means that the said sum will use sometimes contiguous digits that belong to an existing term [example: a(11) = 15 and 15 + 1 (= 16) is visible in a(12) = 160 at DP#15 and DP#16], or will use successive digits belonging to two (or more) contiguous terms [example: a(23) = 44 and 44 + 1 (= 45) is visible in (44, 50) at DP#44 and DP#45 (we don't take into account commas and spaces, only digits)].
