Comments

RECORDS transform of A075685. - Base-4 analog of A065198 (base 10) and A066144 (base 2). Integers like 290, for which a palindrome is (presumably) never reached (cf. A075420), are of course disregarded. A075687 gives the corresponding records.

Examples

			Starting with 26, 3 Reverse and Add! steps are needed to reach a palindrome; starting with n < 26, less (at most 2) steps are needed.
