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”).

EXAMPLE
A000001 contains 0, so a(0) = 1.
A000002 contains 1, so a(1) = 2.
k = 10 is the smallest k not yet in the sequence such that Ak = A000010 contains 8, so a(8) = 10.
