Examples
The van der Corput sequence v(n), n >= 1, is 1/2, 1/4, 3/4, 1/8, 5/8, 3/8, 7/8, 1/16, 9/16, 5/16, 13/16, 3/16, 11/16, ... = A030101/A062383. Then we construct the sequence b(n) = v(A014486(n)), n >= 1, which is 1/4, 5/16, 3/16, 21/64, 13/64, 19/64, 11/64, 7/64, ... a(n) is the denominator of b(n), and A072800(n) is the numerator.
