%N a(n) = a(n-1) + Sum_{k=1..n-1}(a(k) mod 2), a(1) = 1.

%C a(n) = a(n-1) + (number of odd terms so far in the sequence). Example: 15 is 11 + 4 odd terms so far in the sequence (they are 1,3,5,11). See A007980 for the same construction with even integers. - _Eric Angelini_, Aug 05 2007

%C A016789 and A032766 give positions where even and odd terms occur; a(3*n)=A056106(n); a(3*n-1)=A077588(n); a(3*n-2)=A056108(n). - _Reinhard Zumkeller_, Dec 29 2007
