Comments

When normalized over (0,1) by their respective palindrome-free interval about a 196-iterate, it has been empirically observed that the frequency distribution of this sequence appears to be quite symmetric about 0.5, as well as fractal when plotting the distribution over decreasing bin sizes.
The 196-iterates referred to here come from the reverse-and-add process generating A006960.

Examples

			The first term is 6 since 202-196 = 6;
The second term is 1 since 888-887 = 1; etc.

Programs

  • Python
    # Upper 196 offsets. Slow brute force
    n = 196
    while n < 10**15:
      m = n
      while m != int(str(m)[::-1]): m+=1
      print(m-n)
      n = n + int(str(n)[::-1])

Formula

a(n) = A331560(n) - A331556(n).

Comments

By empirical observation, the integers in this sequence are of the form 10*10^n and 11*10^n, n >= 0, since they are the difference of consecutive palindromes surrounding the 196-iterates. (No differences of 2 observed.)

Examples

			191 < 196 < 202, 202 - 191 = 11;
878 < 887 < 888, 888 - 878 = 10; etc.
