Digits 3,1,4,... are indexed 1,2,3,...
See A049514 for the variant "at least 2", which differs from a(11) on. - M. F. Hasler, Oct 18 2019
EXAMPLE
From M. F. Hasler, Oct 18 2019: (Start)
The integer part of Pi*10^22 ends in 33, i.e., at position 22 starts the (first) string of two repeated digits 3, therefore a(1) = 22.
At position 154 starts a string of three '1's, so sequence A049514 lists both, 154 and 155, but this sequence lists none of these. (End)
