%N A138339 Smallest index in A138343 which starts a plateau of n consecutive integers.
%C A138339 The sequence provides an indication of regions of nearly no improvements of the sequence of convergents to Pi when measured by the count of correct digits after rounding. A "plateau" of n consecutive integers is defined by a(n) = j such that A138343(j) = A138343(j+n-1) and such that none of the intermediate A138343 with index j+1 up to j+n-2 drop below this level.
%e A138339 a(3)=4 because the A138343(4) to A138343(6) are the earliest plateau of length 3.
%e A138339 The fact that there is a local maximum at A138343(5)=9 above the plateau is consistent with the definition.
