A048991 Write down the numbers 1,2,3,... but omit any number (such as 12 or 23 or 31 ...) which appears in the concatenation of all earlier terms. 19
1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 24, 25, 26, 27, 28, 29, 30, 32, 33, 35, 36, 37, 38, 39, 40, 43, 44, 46, 47, 48, 49, 50, 54, 55, 57, 58, 59, 60, 65, 66, 68, 69, 70, 76, 77, 79, 80, 87, 88, 90, 99, 100, 102, 103, 104, 105, 106, 107, 108, 109, 110, 112 (list; graph; refs; listen; history; text; internal format)

COMMENTS
Similar to the "punctual birds" A131881, numbers which do not occur earlier than their "natural" position in the string 123...9101112..., but more complex to compute due to the fact that here the omitted numbers must be taken into account. Contains powers of ten A011557 as a subsequence, at indices (1, 10, 63, 402, 2954, ...), giving the number of n-digit terms as (9, 53, 339, 2552, ...). - M. F. Hasler, Oct 25 2019

EXAMPLE
12 is omitted since we see "1,2" at the beginning of the sequence; 101 is omitted because we can see "10,1[1]"; etc.
Since 12 is omitted, 21 does not occur "earlier" and it is in this sequence, but not in A131881, since it occurs earlier in "12,13". - M. F. Hasler, Oct 25 2019
