A079359 Iterate the process: "sum of terms of n-th run" on the Kolakoski sequence until all runs have length 1. 0
1, 8, 1, 4, 1, 4, 6, 4, 1, 6, 1, 4, 8, 1, 4, 1, 8, 1, 4, 1, 8, 4, 1, 8, 1, 4, 8, 1, 4, 1, 8, 1, 8, 1, 4, 1, 4, 6, 4, 1, 6, 1, 4, 1, 4, 8, 1, 4, 6, 4, 1, 8, 4, 1, 8, 1, 4, 1, 8, 1, 4, 1 (list; graph; refs; listen; history; internal format)

COMMENTS

Is it enough to apply the process three times only to obtain all runs of length 1? Then all terms should have values among 1,4,6 or 8.

EXAMPLE

Kolakoski sequence begins 1,2,2,1,1,2,1,2,2,1,2,2,1,1,2,1,1,2,2, When process is applied once: 1,2+2,1+1,2,1,2+2,1,2+2, --> 1,4,2,2,1,4,1,4,...Twice: 1,4,2+2,1,4...->1,4,4,1,4 ... Three times -> 1,8,1,4...
