Another set of related sequences that can be done for each base...
1) Number of ways that n can reach a single base-b digit in its minimal
number of steps. (I say "its minimal number", because some numbers
will require less than C steps).
2) Smallest number that can reach a single base-b digit in its minimal
number of steps in exactly n ways.
