%N Longest palindromic factor of (n base 2); in case of tie choose largest; if it begins with 0 complement it.
%C The "if it begins with 0 complement it" clause is required because nonzero terms in the OEIS may not begin with 0.

%e n=10 = 1010, longest palindromic factor is 101.
%e n=12 = 1100, there are two palindromic factors of length 2, namely 11 and 00, and we choose the larger, 11.
%e n=24 = 11000, longest palindromic factor is 000, complementing gives 111.
