%N Lexicographically earliest sequence of distinct nonnegative integers such that for any n > 0, a(n-1) and a(n) are congruent modulo n, and the least value not yet in the sequence appears as soon as possible.

%C To build the sequence:

%C - we start with a(0) = 0, and repeatedly:

%C - let a(n) be the last known term and v the least value not yet in the sequence,

%C - if a(n) and v are congruent modulo n+1 then a(n+1) = v,

%C - otherwise a(n+2) = v and a(n+1) is chosen as small as possible in such a way as to satisfy the required congruences (this is always possible as n+1 and n+2 are coprime).

%C This construction is similar to that of A352713.

%C This sequence is a variant of A125717 and, by design, is guaranteed to be a permutation of the nonnegative integers (with inverse A367289).
