An example I found: the string of digits 0123456789 occurs at position 17387594880. In this case, it took 11 digits to describe where to find a 10-digit number.

I can’t believe someone downvoted you for asking about the acronym.
I get frustrated when the title, body, and comments all use an acronym, but I can’t figure it out from context. Even more frustrating is when the linked article also doesn’t explain it.
Whatever Costco has. I think it’s a clumping clay.
I looked into robots but decided to try a low-tech solution first. I got an Arm & Hammer brand sifting litter box for $20. I can clean the entire litter box in about 15 seconds.
I have no need for a robotic litter box anymore.
