A338283 Lexicographically earliest sequence of positive integers such that for any distinct m and n, Sum_{k = m+1-a(m)..m} a(k) <> Sum_{k = n+1-a(n)..n} a(k). 4

%N Lexicographically earliest sequence of positive integers such that for any distinct m and n, Sum_{k = m+1-a(m)..m} a(k) <> Sum_{k = n+1-a(n)..n} a(k).

%C In other words, for any n > 0, the sum of the a(n) terms up to and including a(n) is always unique.

%C This sequence is unbounded.
