A183533 An Ulam-type sequence: a(n) = n if n<=10; for n>10, a(n) = least number > a(n-1) which is a unique sum of 10 distinct earlier terms.

Comments

An Ulam-type sequence - see A002858 for further information.

Examples

			a(11) = 55 = 1 + ... + 10 = 10*11/2, because it is the least number >10 with a unique sum of 10 distinct earlier terms.
a(12) = 100 = 1 + ... + 9 + 55 = 10^2, because it is the least number >55 with a unique sum of 10 distinct earlier terms.
