(Greetings from The On-Line Encyclopedia of Integer Sequences!)
A081692 Define two sequences by A_n = mex{A_i,B_i : 0 <= i < n}, B_n = B_{n-1} + (A_n-A_{n-1})(A_n-A_{n-1}+1), where the mex of a set is the smallest nonnegative integer not in the set. Sequence gives A_n. B_n is in A081693. 1

FORMULA

Let a(n) = this sequence, b(n) = A081691. Then a(n) = mex{ a(i), b(i) : 0 <= i < n}, b(0) = 0, b(n) = 2(b(n-1) - a(n-1)) + a(n) + 1.

MATHEMATICA

mex[{}]=0; mex[s_] := Complement[Range[0, 1+Max@@s], s][[1]]; A[0]=B[0]=0; A[n_] := A[n]=mex[Flatten[Table[{A[i], B[i]}, {i, 0, n-1}]]]; B[n_] := B[n]=B[n-1]+(A[n]-A[n-1])*(A[n]-A[n-1]+1); a := A

CROSSREFS

Apart from initial zero, complement of A081693. Cf. A081691.
