%H A217832 <a href="/index/Cu#curling_numbers">Index entries for sequences related to curling numbers</a>
%F A217832 If n is a multiple of 3 then a(n) = 2a(n-1)-A217929(n/3), otherwise a(n) = 2a(n-1).
%F A217832 Comment from Paul Curtz, Oct 15 2012:
%F A217832 From a(n+3)=1, the terms taken in threes are: 1,2,4, 8,16,32, 63,126,252, ... (*).
%F A217832 a(n+4) - 2*a(n+3) = 0,0,0, 0,0,-1, 0,0,-2, 0,0,-4, 0,0,-7, 0,0,-16, 0,0,-30, 0,0,-63, 0,0,-122,... . See -A217929. This is the formula given above.
%F A217832 2^n - (*) = 0,0,0,0,0,0,1,2,4,10,20,40,84,168,336,679,1358,2716,5448,...
%F A217832 = b(n) with offset 0. Hence a second formula:
%F A217832 b(n+1)-2*b(n)=0,0,0,0,0,1,0,0,2,0,0,4,0,0,7,0,0,16,... . (End)
%Y A217832 Cf. A217929, A217930, A217931.
%K A217832 nonn
%O A217832 1,4
