COMMENTS

a(n-1) is the minimum difference between an n-digit number (written in base 10, nonzero leading digit) and the product of its digits. For n > 1, it is also a number meeting that bound. See A070565. - Devin Akman, Apr 17 2019

FORMULA

a(n) = A011557(n) * A057427(n).

For n > 0, a(n) = A011557(n).

a(n) = 10 * A178501(n).

a(n) = A000533(n) - 1.

A061601(a(n)) = A109002(n+1).
