Examples
The highest weight 00000000 corresponds to the 1-dimensional module on which E8 acts trivially. The smallest faithful representation of E8 is the adjoint representation of dimension 248 (the second term in the sequence), with highest weight 00000001. The smallest non-fundamental representation has dimension 27000 (the fourth term), corresponding to the highest weight 00000002.

Formula
Given a vector of 8 nonnegative integers, the Weyl dimension formula tells you the dimension of the corresponding irreducible representation. The list of such dimensions is then sorted numerically.
