A168677 Lexicographically earliest positive integer sequence such that no sum of consecutive terms is a positive power of 4. 2

COMMENTS
It appears that the sequence is periodic with period (1,1,1,5,1,1,1,9) of length 8.

EXAMPLE
Assume that a(1) - a(7) have been determined as {1,1,1,5,1,1,1}. Then a(8)=1 gives consecutive terms 1,1,1,1, summing to 4; a(8)=2 gives 1+1+2=4; ... etc...; a(8)=8 gives 5+1+1+1+8=16; but a(8)=9 is ok, giving no sum of consecutive terms equalling 4,16,64,... .
