Year-end appeal: Please make a donation to the OEIS Foundation to support ongoing development and maintenance of the OEIS. We are now in our 61st year, we have over 378,000 sequences, and we’ve reached 11,000 citations (which often say “discovered thanks to the OEIS”).

COMMENTS
Positions of 4 in A277543. Numbers that have 4 as their rightmost nonzero digit when written in base 5.
This is one sequence in a 4-way splitting of the positive integers; the other three are indicated in the Mathematica program. All these sequences have the same density of 1/4.
Is there some n with a 3 or a 4 in base 5 such that a(n) = 4n + 1? - David A. Corneth, Oct 23 2016
