COMMENTS
| a(n) = 0 or 1, chosen so as to maximize the number of different subsequences that are formed.
a(n+1)=1 if and only if (a(1),a(2),...,a(n),0), but not (a(1),a(2),...,a(n),1), has greater length of longest repeated segment than (a(1),a(2),...,a(n)) has.
In Feb, 2003, Alejandro Dau solved Problem 3 on the Unsolved Problems and Rewards website, thus establishing that every binary word occurs infinitely many times in this sequence.
Klaus Sutmer remarks (Jun 26 2006) that this sequence is very similar to the Ehrenfeucht-Mycielski sequence A007061. Both sequences have every finite binary word as a factor; in fact, essentially the same proof works for both sequences.

EXAMPLE
| a(7)=1 because (0,1,0,0,0,1,0) has repeated segment (0,1,0) of length 3, whereas (0,1,0,0,0,1,1) has no repeated segment of length 3.
