Theorem: all palindromes that have an even number of digits and all palindromes that have an odd number of digits and the digit in the middle is even are in this sequence.

EXAMPLE
k=10 is a term because a solution exists with j=4: s(10)=1, s(k) + j + reversal(s(k) + j) = 1 + 4 + reversal(1 + 4) = 10.
