A103186 a(n) is the position of the start of the first occurrence of n > a(n-1) after the decimal point in Pi = 3.14159265358979323846264338327950288... 4

COMMENTS
The digits at position 1667 are "334", so according to the strict definition of this sequence, a(33) is 1667 and a(34) is 1668. However, this would not enable a person to mark in bold-face the counting numbers within the digits of pi, which was the inspiration for this sequence. Surprisingly, if overlapping is not allowed, this changes only one element of the sequence. a(34) becomes 1700 and a(35) remains 1719. No other overlapping occurs within the first 100,000 decimal digits of Pi. - Graeme McRae, Mar 20 2005

EXAMPLE
Moving always to the right in the decimal expansion of Pi, the string "1" is found at position 1 counting from the first digit after the decimal point, the string "2" is found at position 6, the string "3" at position 6, the string "4" at position 19, etc.
MATHEMATICA
p = ToString[ FromDigits[ RealDigits[ N[Pi - 3, 2600]][[1]]]]; lst = {0}; Do[a = StringPosition[p, ToString[n], 1][[1, 1]]; AppendTo[lst, a + lst[[ -1]]]; p = StringDrop[p, a], {n, 49}]; Rest[lst] (* Robert G. Wilson v, Mar 19 2005 *)
