For the largest possible value is 10^15, thus the largest possible sum of all 
digits comes from 999999999999999, which gives 15*81 = 1215
For 1215, the largest possible sum of all digits comes from 999 --> 243.
For 243, the largest possible sum of all digits comes from 199 --> 163
For 163, it's 162. And it ends here.

Finding the clear numbers in [1,162] is trival.
