A073330 Let c(1)=n and c(k+1)=floor(c(k)/Pi) if c(k) is even, or c(k+1)=floor(Pi*c(k)) otherwise; sequence gives the smallest value a(n) such that c(a(n))=0. 0

FORMULA

Conjecture: sequence always exists (a(123456789)=61, a(2^30)=70) and there is a constant C=2.8... such that sum(k=1, n, a(k)) is asymptotic to C*n*Log(n)

EXAMPLE

c(1)=1 => 3 => 9 => 28 => 8 => 2 => 0 => 0 => 0 ... hence a(1)=7.

PROG

(PARI) a(n)=if(n<0, 0, s=n; t=2; while(floor(s/Pi^(-1)^s)>0, s=floor(s/Pi^(-1)^s); t++); t )
