%N Elias gamma code (EGC) for n.

%C This sequence is the binary equivalent of A171885 for n>=1 and is also mentioned in the example section of the same.

%C The number of bits of a(n) is equal to A129972(n).

%C Unary(n) = A105279(n-1).

%H J. Nelson Raja, P. Jaganathan and S. Domnic, <a href="http://dx.doi.org/10.17485/ijst/2015/v8i24/80242">A New Variable-Length Integer Code for Integer Representation and Its Application to Text Compression</a>, Indian Journal of Science and Technology, Vol 8(24), September 2015.

%F For a given integer n, it is stored in two parts. The first part equals 1+floor(log_2 n) and the second part equals n-2^(floor(log_2 n)). The first part is stored in unary and the second part is stored in binary using floor(log_2 n) bits. Now the first and the second parts are concatenated to give the answer.

%e For n = 9, first part is "1110" and the second part is "001". So, a(9) = 1110001.

%o (Python)

%o def unary(n):

%o ....return "1"*(n-1)+"0"

%o def elias_gamma(n):

%o ....if n ==1:

%o ........return "1"

%o ....k=int(math.log(n,2))

%o ....fp=unary(1+k) #fp is the first part

%o ....sp=n-2**(k) #sp is the second part

%o ....nb=k #nb is the number of bits used to store sp in binary

%o ....sp=bin(sp)[2:]

%o ....if len(sp)<nb:

%o ........sp=("0"*(nb-len(sp)))+sp

%o ....return fp+sp
