Also decimal expansion of 137174210/1111111111 = 0.1234567890123456789012345678901234... - Jason Earls, Mar 19 2001

In general the base k expansion of A062808(k)/A048861(k) (k>=2) will produce the numbers 0,1,2,...,k-1 repeated with period k, equivalent to the sequence n mod k. The k-digit number in base k 123...(k-1)0 (base k) expressed in decimal is A062808(k), whereas A048861(k) = k^k-1. In particular, A062808(10)/A048861(10)=1234567890/9999999999=137174210/1111111111.

Formula

a(n) = n mod 10.

Periodic with period 10.

From Hieronymus Fischer, May 31 and Jun 11 2007: (Start)

Complex representation: a(n) = 1/10*(1-r^n)*sum{1<=k<10, k*product{1<=m<10,m<>k, (1-r^(n-m))}} where r=exp(Pi/5*i) and i=sqrt(-1).

Trigonometric representation: a(n) = (256/5)^2*(sin(n*Pi/10))^2 * sum{1<=k<10, k*product{1<=m<10,m<>k, (sin((n-m)*Pi/10))^2}}.

G.f.: g(x) = (sum{1<=k<10, k*x^k})/(1-x^10) = -x*(1 +2*x +3*x^2 +4*x^3 +5*x^4 +6*x^5 +7*x^6 +8*x^7 +9*x^8) ) / ( (x-1) *(1+x) *(x^4+x^3+x^2+x+1) *(x^4-x^3+x^2-x+1) ).

Also: g(x) = x(9x^10-10x^9+1)/((1-x^10)(1-x)^2).

a(n) = n mod 2+2*(floor(n/2)mod 5) = A000035(n) + 2*A010874(A004526(n)).

Also: a(n) = n mod 5+5*(floor(n/5)mod 2) = A010874(n)+5*A000035(A002266(n)). (End)

a(n) = 10*{n/10}, where {x} means fractional part of x. - Enrique Pérez Herrero, Jul 30 2009

a(n) = n - 10*A059995(n). - Reinhard Zumkeller, Jul 26 2011

a(n) = n^k mod 10, for k > 0, where k mod 4 = 1. - Doug Bell, Jun 15 2015
