%N n-th term is the length of a shortest common superstring of the binary representations of all natural numbers from 1 to n.

%C If a(n) = 2^m, then we know that the lexicographically largest superstring coincides with the lexicographically largest de Bruijn sequence, B(2,m) (A166316(m)). - _Thomas Scheuerle_, Oct 09 2021

%F It appears that a(2^n-1) = 2^n-1 and a(2^n) = 2^n. - _Thomas Scheuerle_, Oct 09 2021

%e a(5)=6 because 6 is the length of 110100 or 101100, which are the 2 possible shortest common superstrings of 1,10,11,100,101.

%Y Cf. A175809 (number of shortest common superstrings).

%Y Cf. A056744 (least decimal values of shortest common superstrings).

%Y Cf. A166316, A016031.
