For natural numbers $m,J,k$ , define an index list recursively by $D_{m,0}(k)=[]$ and $D_{m,J+1}(k)=D_{m,J}(k\mathbin{/}m)\mathbin{+\!+}[k\bmod m]$ , where division is natural-number division. For every $j<J$ ,

D_{m,J}(k)[J-1-j]=\left(\frac{k}{m^j}\right)\bmod m.

List access is the default-zero access used by the decoder, though the indicated position is valid. No positivity assumption on $m$ or bound on $k$ is needed; the natural division and remainder conventions apply at zero. This identifies each physical tuple index with its positional digit.
