%N Self numbers or Colombian numbers (numbers that are not of the form m + sum of digits of m for any m).

%C From _Amiram Eldar_, Nov 28 2020: (Start)

%C The term "self numbers" was coined by Kaprekar (1959). The term "Colombian number" was coined by Recamán (1973) of Bogota, Colombia.

%C The asymptotic density of this sequence is approximately 0.0977778 (Guaraldo, 1978). (End)
