Product of repunits = palindromes : another old hat?!

[Maximilian Hasler]

Dear Zakir,
the square of Rm = (10^m-1)/9 is just a particular case of Rm*Rn,
palindromic for min{m,n} < 10 since Rn=10^(n-1)+...+1 and thus Rm*Rn =
11...11*Rn
= 11...11000...0
+  11...1100...0
+   11...110...0
+...+   11...110
+        11...11
= 123........321.
