FORMULA

Write n in binary; sum the positions where there is a '1' followed immediately to the right by a '0', counting the leftmost digit as position '1'.

EXAMPLE

50 = 110010 has 1's followed by 0's in positions 2 and 5 (reading from the left), so a(50)=7. At the beginning of the sequence we have 0->0, 1->0, 10->1, 11->0, 100->1, 101->1, 110->2, 111->0, 1000->1, 1001->1, 1010->1+3=4, ...

MATHEMATICA

a[n_] := Total[ Flatten[ Position[ IntegerDigits[n, 2] //. {b___, 1, 0, c___} -> {b, 2, 3, c}, 2]]]; Table[a[n], {n, 0, 102}] (* From Jean-François Alcover, Dec 20 2011 *)
