COMMENT

1. We may never know if a(n) is defined for all n. 2. We split up the digits of any number > 9 in the pattern, e.g. if n = 11, we search for the pattern "1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,1,0,1,1". 3. The pattern "1,2,3,4,5,6" does not occur before the 100,000-th term in the digit sequence of Pi.

Here are two more terms: a(6) and a(7) were found via the referenced Pi-Search link, through which 100 million digits of pi are currently available. - Rick L. Shepherd (rshepherd2(AT)hotmail.com), Oct 10 2002

200 million digits now available at Pi-Search page. - Rick L. Shepherd (rshepherd2(AT)hotmail.com), Aug 06 2006
