%e A226611 The irregular array starts:
%e A226611 (k=1)  1;
%e A226611 (k=5)  1, 3, 23, 123, 171;
%e A226611 (k=7)  1;
%e A226611 (k=11) 1, 3;
%e A226611 a(3)=3 is the smallest starting value for a 3x+5 trajectory that includes A226607(3)=19. The trajectory is {3,7,13,22,11,19,...}.
%Y A226611 Row n begins with a(A226612(n)) and has length A226613(n).
%Y A226611 The cycle associated with a(n) has length A226609(n) and A226610(n) odd elements of which A226608(n) is the largest.
