%N A103186 a(n) is the position of the start of the first occurrence of n > a(n-1) 
               after the decimal point in Pi = 3.14159265358979323846264338327950288...
%C A103186 The digits at position 1667 are "334", so, according to the strict definition 
               of this sequence, a(33) is 1667 and a(34) is 1668. However, this 
               would not enable a person to mark in bold-face the counting numbers 
               within the digits of pi, which was the inspiration for this sequence. 
               Surprisingly, if overlapping is not allowed, this changes only one 
               element of the sequence. a(34) becomes 1700 and a(35) remains 1719. 
               No other overlapping occurs within the first 100,000 decimal digits 
               of Pi. - Graeme McRae (g_m(AT)mcraefamily.com), Mar 20 2005

%e A103186 Moving always to the right in the decimal expansion of Pi, the string 
               "1" is found at position 1 counting from the first digit after the 
               decimal point, the string "2" is found at position 6, the string 
               "3" at position 6, the string "4" at position 19, etc.
