Comments

This is one of three sequences that partition the positive integers.

Given t is the tribonacci constant, then the following sequences are disjoint:

. A184820(n) = n + [n/t] + [n/t^2],

. A184821(n) = n + [n*t] + [n/t],

. A184822(n) = n + [n*t] + [n*t^2], where []=floor.

This is a special case of Clark Kimberling's results given in A184812.

Examples

			Let t be the tribonacci constant, then t^3 = 1 + t + t^2 where:
t = 1.8392867552..., t^2 = 3.3829757679..., t^3 = 6.2222625231...

Formula

Limit a(n)/n = t^3 = 6.2222625231...

a(n) = n + floor(n*q/p) + floor(n*r/p), where p=t, q=t^2, r=t^3, and t is the tribonacci constant (see Clark Kimberling's formula in A184812).
