Comments

Like Keith numbers but starting from n^8 digits to reach n.

Consider the digits of n^8. Take their sum and repeat the process deleting the first addend and adding the previous sum. The sequence lists the numbers that after some number of iterations reach a sum equal to n.

Formula

207^8 = 3371031134626313601:

3 + 3 + 7 + 1 + 0 + 3 + 1 + 1 + 3 + 4 + 6 + 2 + 6 + 3 + 1 + 3 + 6 + 0 + 1 = 54;

3 + 7 + 1 + 0 + 3 + 1 + 1 + 3 + 4 + 6 + 2 + 6 + 3 + 1 + 3 + 6 + 0 + 1 + 54 = 105;

7 + 1 + 0 + 3 + 1 + 1 + 3 + 4 + 6 + 2 + 6 + 3 + 1 + 3 + 6 + 0 + 1 + 54 + 105 = 207.
