%N A236858 Irregular table where row n contains numbers from 1 to the least common multiple (LCM) of {1, 2, ..., n}. Row 0 is given as a(0)=1.
%C A236858 Numbers 1..A003418(n) followed by numbers 1..A003418(n+1), etc., where A003418(n) gives the least common multiple (LCM) of {1, 2, ..., n} for n >= 1 and A003418(0)=1.
%C A236858 Useful when computing irregular tables like A238280. Note that as A238280 begins with row 1, it starts referring to this sequence only from a(1) onward.

%F A236858 a(n) = n - A236856(A236857(n)- 1).
%e A236858 The sequence can be viewed also as an irregular table that starts as:

%e A236858 1 | 1;
%e A236858 2 | 1, 2;
%e A236858 3 | 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6;
