COMMENTS

C(k) = {a(n)/A140130(n): 2^(k-1) <= n < 2^k} = nonnegative Conway

numbers created on day k according the genesis reported by Knuth.

c(2^n-1) = n-1; c(2^n) = 0; c(3*2^n) = 1; c(5*2^n) = 1/2;

for n>1: a(A023758(n))=A002262(n-2) and A140130(A023758(n))=1;

a(n)=a(n-2^[Log2(n))+A140130(n-2^[Log2(n)) for n with

3*2^[Log2(n)-1]<=n<2^[Log2(n)].
