%N A326190 Length of the shortest path to 1 when starting from x=n and on each iteration step one may always choose either transition x -> A032742(x) or x -> A302042(x).

%F A326190 a(1) = 0; for n > 1, a(n) = 1 + min(a(A032742(n)), a(A302042(n))).
%F A326190 a(n) <= min(A001222(n),A253557(n)) <= max(A001222(n),A253557(n)) <= A326191(n) <= A326189(n).
%e A326190 The directed acyclic graph whose unique root is 153 (illustrated below), spans the following seven numbers [1, 5, 17, 25, 51, 75, 153], as A032742(153) = 51, A302042(153) = 75, A032742(51) = 17, A302042(51) = 25, A032742(75) = 25, A302042(75) = 15, A032742(25) = A302042(25) = 5, and A032742(17) = A302042(17) = A032742(5) = A302042(5) = 1. The length of shortest path(s) from 153 to 1 is 3 (there are actually two shortest paths: 153 -> 51 -> 17 -> 1 and 153 -> 75 -> 17 -> 1), thus a(153) = 3.
