FORMULA

a(n) = sum_{i >= 0} binomial(A000120(n+i),i)

For k >= 1, a(2^k-2) = k+1 and a(2^k-1) = 3; otherwise if n = 2^i + j, 0 <= j <= 2^i-3, a(n) = a(j) + a(j+1).

a(n) = 2*A151552(n) + A151552(n-1).

EXAMPLE

a(5) = binomial(2,0) + binomial(2,1) + binomial(3,2) + binomial(1,3) + binomial(2,4) + binomial(2,5) + ... = 1 + 2 + 3 + 0 + 0 + 0 + ... = 6
