COMMENTS

Starting from the 4th term, every succeeding term is twice the preceding term. I.e. a(n+1) = 2a(n).

Number of binary words of length n-2 that do not start with 01 (n>=2). Example: a(5)=6 because we have 000,001,100,101,110 and 111. Except for the initial term, column 0 of A119440. - Emeric Deutsch (deutsch(AT)duke.poly.edu), May 19 2006

a(n) written in base 2: a(1) = 1, a(2) = 1, a(3) = 10, a(n) for n >= 4: 11, 110, 11000, 110000, ..., i.e.: 2 times 1, (n-4) times 0 (see A003953(n-3). [From Jaroslav Krizek (jaroslav.krizek(AT)atlas.cz), Aug 17 2009]
