%N Numbers n such that n-th Fibonacci number has initial digits n.

%C The Mathematica coding used by _Robert G. Wilson v_ implements Binet's Fibonacci number formula as suggested by _David W. Wilson_ and incorporates _Benoit Cloitre_'s use of logarithms to achieve a further increase in speed.

%F n>5 is in the sequence if a=(1+sqrt(5))/2 b=1/sqrt(5) and n==floor(b*(a^n)/10^(floor((log(b) +n*log(a))/log(10))-floor(log(n)/log(10))) ). - _Benoit Cloitre_, Feb 27 2002

%e a(3)=43 since 43rd Fibonacci number starts with 43 -> {43}3494437.

%e Fibonacci(53) is 53316291173, which begins with 53, so 53 is a term in the sequence.
