%N Number of entries in n-th row of Pascal's triangle not divisible by 3.

%C Fixed point of the morphism a -> a, 2a, 3a, starting from a(1) = 1. - _Robert G. Wilson v_, Jan 24 2006

%C This is a particular case of the number of entries in n-th row of Pascal's triangle not divisible by a prime p, which is given by a simple recursion using ⊗, the Kronecker (or tensor) product of vectors. Let v_0=(1,2,...,p). Then v_{n+1)=v_0 ⊗ v_n, where the vector v_n contains the values for the first p^n rows of Pascal's triangle (rows 0 through p^n-1). - William B. Everett (bill(AT)chgnet.ru), Mar 29 2008

%C a(n) = A206424(n) + A227428(n); number of nonzero terms in row n of triangle A083093. - _Reinhard Zumkeller_, Jul 11 2013

%F Write n in base 3; if the representation contains r 1's and s 2's then a(n) = 3^s * 2^r. Also a(n) = Sum_{k=0..n} (C(n, k)^2 mod 3). - Avi Peretz (njk(AT)netvision.net.il), Apr 21 2001
