[Bob Selcoe]

Hi Eric & Seqfans,

Generally, let the digit sum of X=D; then if the least residue of 2X_mod_D
is a member of S where S is 0 and the partial sums of the digits of X
(excluding the 1s digit), then the number is Essicran.

So X=13: S={0,1}, D=4; 26mod4 == 2 not in S, therefore 13 != Essicran.

X=12: S={0,1}, D=3; 24mod3 == 0 therefore 12 = Essicran.

X=2015: S={0,2,3}, D=8; 4030mod8 == 6 not in S, therefore 2015 != Essicran.

X=11237; S={0,1,2,4,7}, D=14;   22474mod14 == 4, therefore 11237 = Essicran.

Cheers,
Bob Selcoe
