A302389 A fractal-like sequence: erasing all pairs of contiguous terms that don't have a digit in common leaves the sequence unchanged.
1, 2, 12, 3, 13, 4, 14, 5, 15, 6, 16, 7, 17, 8, 18, 9, 19, 20, 10, 22, 21, 30, 23, 11, 1, 31, 24, 2, 12, 25, 33, 3, 13, 32, 40, 4, 14, 34, 26, 27, 35, 5, 15, 41, 28, 29, 36, 6, 16, 46, 37, 7, 17, 47, 38, 8, 18, 48, 39, 9, 19, 49, 50, 20, 10, 51, 42, 22, 21, 52

Examples
Parentheses are added around each pair of terms that have no digit in common: (1,2),(12,3),(13,4),(14,5),(15,6),(16,7),(17,8),(18,9),(19,20),(10,22),(21,30),(23,11),1,(31,24),2,12,(25,33),3,13,(32,40),4,14, Erasing all the parenthesized contents yields (...),(....),(....),(....),(....),(....),(....),(....),(.....),(.....),(.....),(.....),1,( .....),2,12,( .....),3,13,( .....),4,14, We see that the remaining terms slowly rebuild the starting sequence.
