0, 1, 2, 3, 3, 3, 3, 3, 4, 4, 3, 4, 4, 3, 3, 4, 4, 3, 3, 4, 4, 3, 3, 3, 4, 4, 4, 4, 3, 5, 5, 3, 3, 3, 3, 5, 5, 3, 4, 4, 3, 4, 4, 3, 3, 3, 3, 3, 4, 4, 3, 3, 3, 3, 3, 4, 4, 3, 3, 3, 3, 3, 3, 5, 5, 3, 3, 4, 4, 3, 3, 4, 4, 3, 3, 3, 3, 3, 3, 4, 6, 5, 3, 5, 5, 3, 3, 3, 3, 5, 5, 3, 4, 4, 3, 3, 3, 3, 3, 4, 4, 3, 3

Comments

All such bases are divisors of n or n-1, since the lowest base-B digit of n is 0 iff B | n, 1 iff B | n-1. - Robert Israel, Jul 04 2018

Examples

			a(30)=5, since 30 written in the 5 bases 2, 3, 5, 29, 30 is 11110, 1010, 110, 11, 10.
