FORMULA

a(n)=n-2^A000523(n)

G.f.: 1/(1-x) * ((2x-1)/(1-x) + sum_{k>=1} 2^(k-1)*x^2^k). - Ralf Stephan (ralf(AT)ark.in-berlin.de), Apr 18 2003

a(1) = 0, a(2n) = 2a(n), a(2n+1) = 2a(n)+1.

a(n)=f(n-1,1) with f(n,m) = if n<m then n else f(n-m,2*m). [From Reinhard Zumkeller (reinhard.zumkeller(AT)gmail.com), May 20 2009]
