Comments

The binary code is the same as used by function general-car-cdr of MIT/GNU Scheme: a zero bit represents a cdr operation (taking the right hand side branch in the binary tree), and a one bit represents a car (taking the left hand side branch in the binary tree). The bits are interpreted from LSB to MSB, and the most significant one bit, rather than being interpreted as an operation, signals the end of the binary code.

Examples

			As we can traverse to 4 in A218776-tree (see the example there) by taking first the right branch (cdr) from the root, resulting bit 0 as the least significant bit of the code, then by taking the left branch (car) from 3 to get to 4, resulting bit 1 as the second rightmost bit of the code, which when capped with an extra termination-one, results binary code 110, 6 in decimal, thus a(4)=6.

a(n) = A054429(A218614(n)). Superset of A218791. Used to construct A218776, A218777. Cf. also A179016, A218787, A218788

Formula

a(1)=1, for odd n, a(n) = A004754(a(A011371(n))), for even n, a(n) = A004755(a(A011371(n))).
