A330925 For any n >= 0: consider all pairs of numbers (x, y) whose binary representations can be interleaved (or shuffled) to produce the binary representation of n (possibly with leading zeros); a(n) is the greatest possible value of x*y.
0, 0, 0, 1, 0, 2, 2, 3, 0, 4, 4, 6, 4, 6, 6, 9, 0, 8, 8, 12, 8, 12, 12, 15, 8, 12, 12, 18, 12, 18, 18, 21, 0, 16, 16, 24, 16, 24, 24, 28, 16, 24, 24, 30, 24, 30, 30, 35, 16, 24, 24, 36, 24, 36, 36, 42, 24, 36, 36, 42, 36, 42, 42, 49, 0, 32, 32, 48, 32, 48, 48

Examples
For n = 5: - the binary representation of 5 is "101", - the possible values for (x, y), restricted to x >= y without loss of generality, are: bin(5) x y x*y ------- - - --- "101" 5 0 0 "1/01" 1 1 1 "10/1" 2 1 2 "1/0/1" 3 0 0 - hence a(5) = 2.

Formula
a(n) = 0 iff n is zero or a power of 2.
a(2*n) = 2*a(n).
