(row 1)=-1+A049652.
(column 1)=A000027.
(column 2)=A001950=(u(n)), or simply u.
(column 3)=u(u(n))+l(l(n)), or simply uu+ll.
(column 4)=u(uu+ll)+l(ul+lu),
whereas Column 4 of the lower Beatty array
is u(ul+lu)+l(uu+ll).
U(n,k)-L(n,k)=n for n>=1, k>=0.
FORMULA
Here we introduce Beatty arrays. Suppose that
((u(1),u(2),...) and (l(1),l(2),...) are the Beatty
sequences of positive real numbers r and s=r/(1-r), where
r<s. For n>=1, let
U(n,0)=n, U(n,1)=u(1), L(n,0)=0, L(n,1)=l(1),
and for k>=2 let x=floor(r*u(k-1)), y=floor(r*l(k-1)),
a=x+u(k-1), b=x, c=y+l(k-1), d=y,
U(n,k)=a+d, L(n,k)=b+c. We call U and L the upper and
lower Beatty arrays of r (and of s). Note that
U(n,k)-L(n,k)=U(n,1)-L(n,1) for all n>=1 and k>=1.
