%C Do all the positive integers appear in this sequence?

%C With 10^6 terms, 87, 89, 90, 91, 92, 94, 95, 96, 97, 98, 101, 102, 103, 104, 105, 106, 108, 109, 110, 112 are the smallest numbers that still are not in the sequence.

%e a(8) = 29 and digitsum(29) = 11 is already in the sequence, so a(9) = a(8) + 8 = 29 + 8 = 37.

%e a(9) = 37 and digitsum(37) = 3 + 7 = 10 is not yet in the sequence, so a(10) = 10.

%e Written as an irregular triangle, in which each line begins with a term which is the digit sum of its preceding term, the sequence begins:
