Consider the succession of single digits of the positive odd integers: 1 3 5 7 9 1 1 1 3 1 5 1 7 1 9 2 1 2 3 2 5 ... (A031312). This sequence is the lexicographically earliest sequence of distinct positive even integers that produces the same succession of digits.

Original name: "Write each even integer >0 on a single label. Put the labels in numerical order to form an infinite sequence L. Now consider the succession of single digits of A005408 (odd numbers): 1 3 5 7 9 1 1 1 3 1 5 1 7 1 9 2 1 2 3 2 5 2 7 2 9 3 1 3 3 3 5 3 7 3 9... The sequence S gives a rearrangement of the labels that reproduces the same succession of digits, subject to the constraint that the smallest label must be used that does not lead to a contradiction."
This could be roughly rephrased like this: Rewrite in the most economical way the "odd numbers pattern" using only even numbers, but rearranged. All the numbers of the sequence must be different one from another.

EXAMPLE
|
We must begin with "1,3,5..." and we cannot use "1" or "13" or "135" (only even terms are available), so the first possibility is "1357911131517192". For "199,201,203..." we won't be allowed to use "1992", for instance, since no term begins with a 0.
