%N One of a family of fractal sequences that transforms into each other.

%C Let A be the sequence A114729 (1, 1, 1, 2, 3, 2, 2, 1, 1, 1, ...), B be the sequence A114730 (1, 1, 2, 2, 1, 1, 1, 2, 3, 4, ...) and C be the sequence A114731 (1, 2, 1, 1, 1, 2, 3, 3, 2, 2, ...). Let D be the sequence A114732 (1, 2, 3, 1, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, ...), E be the sequence A114733 (1, 2, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 3, 1, 1, ...) and F be the sequence A114734 (1, 1, 2, 3, 4, 2, 1, 2, 3, 4, ...). Then:

%C - A upper trims to B

%C - B upper trims to C

%C - C upper trims to A

%C - A lower trims to C

%C - B lower trims to A

%C - C lower trims to B

%C - D gives the number of times each element of A occurs

%C - E gives the number of times each element of B occurs

%C - F gives the number of times each element of C occurs

%C - A gives the number of times each element of D occurs

%C - B gives the number of times each element of E occurs

%C - C gives the number of times each element of F occurs

%C - D lower trims to E

%C - E lower trims to F

%C - F lower trims to D

%C - D upper trims to F

%C - E upper trims to D

%C - F upper trims to E

%e E(9)=1 and that's the third 1 in sequence E, so B(9)=3.
