For n > 9 let f(n) be formed by writing down the sums of every pair of consecutive digits of n: e.g. f(3469)=71015 because 3+4=7,4+6=10,6+9=15; let f(n)=0 if n is a single digit. Sequence gives smallest number requiring n iterations to reach zero. |

FORMULA
|
a(n)=10^(n-2)+9, for n=2, 3, 4 and for n > 40
|
|
EXAMPLE
|
a(5)=149 because 149 -(1)-> 513 -(2)-> 64 -(3)-> 10 -(4)-> 1 -(5)-> 0. a(7)=399 because 399 -(1)-> 1218 -(2)-> 339 -(3)-> 612 -(4)-> 73 -(5)-> 10 -(6)-> 1 -(7)-> 0.
