    Joyce Sequence

    Definition

    The sequence of numbers {j_n} giving the number of digits in the three-fold power tower n^(n^n). The values of n^(n^n) for n = 1, 2, ... are 1, 16, 7625597484987, ... (OEIS A002488; Rossier 1948), so the Joyce sequence is 1, 2, 13, 155, 2185, 36306, ... (OEIS A054382). Laisant found the term j_9, and Uhler published the logarithm of this number to 250 decimal places.
