FORMULA

It appears that the sequence is given by the following recursion: a(n)=1 if n=1, a(n)=9a(3^(k-1))-2 if n=3^k for some k>0, a(n)=a(n-3^(k-1)) if 3^(k-1)<n<3^k for some k>0. This recursion formula has been verified for n<=2000.

a(n) = A066443(A007949(n)). (This is equivalent to the conjectured recursion above; that recursion is correct.) - Frank Adams-Watters (FrankTAW(AT)Netscape.net), Jul 24 2006
