A227542 a(n) is the number of all terms preceding a(n-1) that have the same even-odd parity as a(n-1). 1

%N a(n) is the number of all terms preceding a(n-1) that have the same even-odd parity as a(n-1).

%C If a(n-1) is even, a(n) is the count of all even members preceding a(n-1). If a(n-1) is odd, then a(n) is the count of all odd members preceding a(n-1).
