"If a positive integer k contains all ten digits, 0, 1, 2,..., 9, and  
this property persists through all its multiples k, 2k, 3k,..., then k  
is said to be a persistent number. It turns out that there are no  
persistent numbers: the demand for persistence through all multiples  
is just too much to ask. An unbroken initial run of successes,  
however, does not go unrecognized; if the first n multiples k, 2k,...,  
nk, each contain all ten digits, then k is awarded the distinction of  
being called n-persistent. For example, k = 1234567890 is 2-persistent  
because 2k = 2469135780, but not 3-persistent, in view of 3k =  
3703703670."
