The complementary sequences a() and b() are uniquely determined by the titular equation and initial values. The initial values of each sequence in the following guide are a(0) = 1, a(2) = 3, b(0) = 2:
A294476: a(n) = a(n-2) + b(n-1) + 1
A294477: a(n) = a(n-2) + b(n-1) + 2
A294478: a(n) = a(n-2) + b(n-1) + 3
A294479: a(n) = a(n-2) + b(n-1) + n
A294480: a(n) = a(n-2) + b(n-1) + 2n
A294481: a(n) = a(n-2) + b(n-1) + n - 1
A294482: a(n) = a(n-2) + b(n-1) + n + 1
For a(n-2) + b(n-1), with offset 1 instead of 0, see A022942.

Examples

			a(0) = 1, a(1) = 3, b(0) = 2, b(1) = 4, so that
a(2)  = a(0) + b(1) + 1 = 6
Complement: (b(n)) = (2, 4, 5, 7, 8, 10, 11, 12, 13, 15,...)
