COMMENTS
The asymptotic density of biquadrate integers is 90/Pi^4 = 1/zeta(4) = 0.92393840292159... The number of biquadrate integers not exceeding N is approximately N/zeta(4). a(n) gives the difference between this number (A375246) and the linear estimate N/zeta(4) rounded to the nearest integer when N is a power of 10.
FORMULA
a(n) = A375246(10^n)-round(10^n/zeta(4)).
