contents We study a problem of Douglass and Ono concerning the smallest integer $n$ such that the partition function $p(n)$ begins with a specified string of digits $f$ in base $b$. By employing an elementary discrepancy framework, we establish new upper bounds that significantly improve upon previous results of Luca.
