COMMENTS

For periodic sequences having a period of 2*k and composed of k ones followed by k zeros we have a(n) = floor(((n+k) mod 2*k)/k).  Sequences of this form are A000035(n+1) (k=1), A133872(n) (k=2), this sequence (k=3), A131078(n) (k=4), and A112713(n-1) (k=5).

FORMULA

G.f.: (1+x+x^2)/(1-x^6) = 1/((1-x)(1+x)(1-x+x^2)).

a(n) = a(n-6) for n>=6, a(0)=a(1)=a(2)=1, a(3)=a(4)=a(5)=0.

a(n) = ((-1)^(floor((5*n + 2)/3)) + 1)/2.

a(n)=sum(k=0..floor(n/2), U(n-2k, 1/2) ) - Paul Barry (pbarry(AT)wit.ie), Nov 15 2003

Partial sums of expansion of 1/(1+x^3), see A131531. a(n)=2*sin(pi*r/3+pi/6)/3+cos(pi*r)/6+1/2 - Paul Barry (pbarry(AT)wit.ie), Mar 14 2004

a(n)= floor(((n+3) mod 6)/3)

a(n)= floor((5*n-1)/3) mod 2. [From Gary Detlefs (gdetlefs(AT)aol.com), May 17 2011]

a(n) = 1/2 + cos(Pi*n/3)/3 +sin(Pi*n/3)/sqrt(3)+(-1)^n/6. - R. J. Mathar, Oct 08 2011
