COMMENTS

Also the fixed point of the morphism 0->{0,1,2,3,4,5}, 1->{1,2,3,4,5,6}, 2->{2,3,4,5,6,7}, etc. - Robert G. Wilson v Jul 27 2006.

a(n) = A138530(n,6) for n > 5. - Reinhard Zumkeller (reinhard.zumkeller(AT)gmail.com), Mar 26 2008

Sum of six consecutive terms is (15,21,27,33,39,45; 21,27,33,39,45,51; 27,33,39,45,51,57; and so on) [From Vincenzo Librandi (vincenzo.librandi(AT)tin.it), Aug 02 2010]

FORMULA

a(0)=0, a(6n+i)=a(n)+i 0<=i<=5; a(n)=n-5*(sum(k>0, floor(n/6^k))=n-5*A054895(n). - Benoit Cloitre, Dec 19, 2002

a(n)=Sumk>=0 {A030567(n,k)}. - From DELEHAM Philippe, Oct 21 2011.

EXAMPLE

a(20)=3+2=5 because 20 is written as 32 base 6

Contribution from Omar E. Pol (info(AT)polprimos.com), Feb 21 2010: (Start)

It appears that this can be written as a triangle (See the conjecture in the entry A000120):

0,

1,2,3,4,5,

1,2,3,4,5,6,2,3,4,5,6,7,3,4,5,6,7,8,4,5,6,7,8,9,5,6,7,8,9,10,

1,2,3,4,5,6,2,3,4,5,6,7,3,4,5,6,7,8,4,5,6,7,8,9,5,6,7,8,9,10,6,7,8,9,10,11,2...

where the rows converge to A173526.
