Eric and Tom, They may be base dependent, but aren't we all! I created A332550 and A332551 for IM and S, but I only did enough to get the balls rolling. Maybe one of you could add more terms, programs, comments, b-files ... Eric, The latest issue of the TLS (Feb 14) has reviews of 4 or 5 new books in English about Oulipo (which is another reason I like those two sequences, they seem oulipoan to me, like many of your creations). Tell me, were you ever, or are you now, a card-carrying member of that group?! Somehow I thought there was a connection, but maybe I mis-remember. Best regards Neil Neil J. A. Sloane, President, OEIS Foundation. 11 South Adelaide Avenue, Highland Park, NJ 08904, USA. Also Visiting Scientist, Math. Dept., Rutgers University, Piscataway, NJ.

At step 65,577,857 we reach 1,023,456,798, whose IM is zero, and the sequence is constant thereafter.

Hello Math-Fun, In this country, digits go by closed boxes containing 10 distinct digits each. To write the number 2019 you can open a single box and extract the digits 2, 0, 1 and 9. We call "imbalance" the quantity of unused digit in one (or more) opened box(es). So, writing 2019 leaves an imbalance of 6 (the 6 unused digits in the box).
Now, if we want to write 2020 we must open two boxes (...)
The question: "Is S infinite?" is explained there, on my personal blog page: http://cinquantesignes.blogspot.com/2020/02/integer-imbalance.html Best, É.
