(Greetings from The On-Line Encyclopedia of Integer Sequences!)
A128999 Start with an integer (in this case 1). First, add 5 or 6 if the integer is odd or even, respectively. Then divide by 2. Notice any a(1)<=5 converges to 5 and any a(1)>=6 converges to 6. 0

FORMULA

a(n)=[a(n-1) + b]/d, if a(n) even =[a(n-1) + c]/d, if a(n) odd (starting a(1)=1 with b=5, c=6, d=2)

a(n)=5 for n>=4. - R. J. Mathar (mathar(AT)strw.leidenuniv.nl), Oct 31 2007

a(n)=5-4*[C(2*(n-1),(n-1)) mod 2]-2*[C(n^2,n+2) mod 2]-[C((n-1)^2,n+1) mod 2], with n>=1 - Paolo P. Lava (paoloplava(AT)gmail.com), Feb 01 2008
