COMMENTS
Sum of digits, not iterated (i.e., not digital sum, reducing to a single digit) as we twice get a term of 10 which we do not reduce to 1. This is to tribonacci (A000073) as A030132 is to Fibonacci (A000045). This sequence has a preamble of 3 terms (1, 1, 1), then enters a cycle of length 39 (ending with 10, 10, 10).
FORMULA
a(n+2) = sum of digits of (a(n) + a(n-1) + a(n-2)). a(n+2) = A007953(a(n) + a(n-1) + a(n-2)).
MATHEMATICA
a[0] = a[1] = a[2] = 1; a[n_] := a[n] = Total@ IntegerDigits[a[n-1] + a[n-2] + a[n-3]]; a /@ Range[0, 93] (* Giovanni Resta, Jun 17 2016 *)
