COMMENT

Related to a problem posed by Google and discussed on the MathWorld link.

Together with the b-file, this gives the complete list of all 35 positive numbers n such that n is equal to the number of 3's in the decimal digits of all numbers <= n. - Daniel Hirschberg (dan(AT)ics.uci.edu), May 05 2007

Mathworld, A problem posed by Google

EXAMPLE

a(1) = 371599983, since writing out all numbers from 0 to 371599983 requires that 371599983 3's be used and since 371599983 is the first such positive integer.

a(4)=371599986 because the number of 3's in the decimal digits of the numbers from 1 to 371599986 is 371599986, and this is the 4th such number.
