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=8, d=2)

a(n)=[13-(-1)^n]/2-6*[C(2*(n-1),(n-1)) mod 2]-3*{C[n^2,n+2] mod 2}-3*[C((n-1)^2,n+1) mod 2], with n>=1 - Paolo P. Lava (paoloplava(AT)gmail.com), Feb 01 2008

EXAMPLE

a(7)=6 because [7+5]/2=6

MATHEMATICA

a={1}; k=1; For[n=1, n<70, n++, If[EvenQ[k], k=k+8, k=k+5]; k=k/2; AppendTo[a, k]]; a - Stefan Steinerberger (stefan.steinerberger(AT)gmail.com), May 26 2007
