A335214 Divide the biggest term of the pair [a(n), a(n+1)] by the smallest one and keep the remainder; the successive remainders of the successive pairs rebuild the starting sequence, digit after digit. This is the lexicographically earliest sequence of distinct positive terms with this property.
10, 3, 6, 9, 15, 24, 23, 18, 8, 12, 5, 13, 14, 22, 30, 29, 27, 11, 34, 31, 17, 19, 21, 45, 90, 44, 35, 33, 26, 25, 4, 7, 32, 63, 46, 47, 38, 36, 37, 41, 87, 39, 78, 74, 70, 67, 62, 59, 28, 54, 52, 57, 53, 60, 92, 43, 20, 16, 86, 82, 75, 72, 64, 61, 55, 58, 51, 106, 88, 81, 42, 49, 155, 148, 48, 103, 206, 40, 127, 65

Examples
a(1)/a(2) = 10/3 = 3 with remainder 1; a(3)/a(2) = 6/3 = 2 with remainder 0; a(4)/a(3) = 9/6 = 1 with remainder 3; a(5)/a(4) = 15/9 = 1 with remainder 6; a(6)/a(5) = 24/15 = 1 with remainder 9; a(6)/a(7) = 24/23 = 1 with remainder 1; a(7)/a(8) = 23/18 = 1 with remainder 5; etc. We see that the successive remainders 1,0,3,6,9,1,5,... are the successive digits of the sequence itself 10,3,6,9,15,24,23,...
