%N Number of digits in all base-b representations of n, for 2 <= b <= n.
%C From _A.H.M. Smeets_, Dec 14 2019: (Start)
%C a(n)-a(n-1) >= 2 due to the fact that n = 10_n, so there is an increment of at least 2. If n can be written as a perfect power m^s, an additional +1 comes to it for the representation of n in each base m.
%C For instance, for n = 729 we have 729 = 3^6 = 9^3 = 27^2, so there is an additional increment of 3. For n = 1296 we have 1296 = 6^4 = 36^2, so there is an additional increment of 2. For n = 4096 we have 4096 = 2^12 = 4^6 = 8^4 = 16^3= 64^2, so there is an additional increment of 5. (End)
