A337833 Minimum m coprime to 5 such that the convergence speed of m^^m := m^(m^^(m-1)) is equal to n >= 0, where A317905(n) represents the convergence speed of m^^m (and m = A047201(n), the n-th non-multiple of 5). 4

COMMENTS
Let "s" denote the last digit of m, and V(m(s)) its convergence speed. For any n, the smallest bases that are not congruent to 5 modulo 10 (as in A337392) cannot be such that s = 6, since V(m(6)) = V(m(4)) + 2.

EXAMPLE
For n = 19, a(19) = 19073486328124 is the smallest base (radix-10) of the tetration m^^m which is characterized by a congruence speed of 19.
