COMMENT

This sequence is interesting because the first six terms are cyclic shifts of one another (in decimal).

The digits of each term can be partitioned into two parts with the right part always consisting of 3 digits and the left part containing all the remaining digits; adding then those two numbers will yield a sum which is multiple of 999: (142+857)/999 = 1 .. (857+142)/999 = 1 (999+999)/999 = 2 (1142+856)/999 = 2 .. (1857+141)/999 = 2 (2142+855)/999 = 3 .. (2857+140)/999 = 3 (2999+997)/999 = 4 .. As a result of above operations the sequence A054896 starting with the term 8 is produced. - Alexander R. Povolotsky (pevnev(AT)juno.com), Nov 02 2007
