ProducingFollowing earlier resolutions, this R code is producing two different sequences with the correct limiting frequencies whether \$s=0\$ (penultimate digits) or \$s\ne 0\$:
(1:n%/%10^ (!s)last digits)%%10:
1:n%/%10^(!s)%%10
As for checking whether or not the merged sequences work as well, one can tryrun, e.g.,
summary(as.factor((10*((1:n)%/%10%%10)+((1:n)%%10))))
summary(as.factor((10*(1:n%/%10%%10)+(1:n%%10))))
