%e A193241 The initial term is 10100. Using complex base -1+i, this is -4-2i. Reversing 10100 gives 00101, which is 1-2i.  Adding both terms gives -3-4i, which is 11100001, the second term.
%Y A193241 Cf A193239, number of steps needed to reach a palindrome with complex base -1+i. For that sequence, a(20)=-1, showing that decimal 20 (binary 10100) seems to not reach a palindrome under the "Reverse and Add" iteration.  Cf A193240, the trajectory of 110 (decimal 6) under the "Reverse and Add" iteration with complex base -1+i.
