COMMENTS

This sequence draws the Sierpinski gasket, when iterating the following odd-even drawing rule : If "1" then draw a segment forward, if "0" then draw a segment forward and turn 120A degs right if in odd position or left if in even position.

Contribution from Dimitri Hendriks (diem(AT)cs.vu.nl), Jun 29 2010: (Start)

This sequence is the first difference of the Mephisto Waltz A064990, i.e., a(n) = A064990(n) + A064990(n+1), where `+' is addition modulo 2.

This sequence can also be generated as a Toeplitz word: First consider the periodic word 0,1,$,0,1,$,0,1,$,... and then fill the gaps $ by the bitwise negation of the sequence itself: 0,1,_1_,0,1,_0_,0,1,_0_,.... See [1] for a precise definition of Toeplitz sequences.

FORMULA

apply morphism iteratively to infinity : 0->011 and 1->010.

a(3k-2)=0, a(3k-1)=1, a(3k)=1-a(k) for k>=1, a(0)=0. [From Clark Kimberling, Apr 28 2011]
