The map n -> A069345(n) is applied repeatedly, starting at n, until reaching a 1.
LINKS
Enrique Pérez Herrero, Table of n, a(n) for n = 1..5000
EXAMPLE
a(n=5) = 3 because 5 - bigomega(5) = 4 (first iteration),
4 - bigomega(4) = 2 (second iteration) and
2 - bigomega(2) = 1 (third iteration and reaching 1).
MAPLE

MATHEMATICA
