%N Powers of 3 written in base 11. (Next term contains a non-decimal character.)
%C The next term contains a non-decimal character if such a character (e.g., 'A') is chosen to represent a digit 10, where "digit" means the coefficients in N = Sum_{k>=0} d_k * 11^k. A different "encoding" has to be used to represent such terms in the Data sections of OEIS entries. In order to preserve the terms a(0..7), one could use the two-digit combinations '08' and '18' to encode the digits 8 (the only one not occurring so far) and 10. - _M. F. Hasler_, Jun 25 2018
