%N Relative of Hofstadter Q-sequence.

%C This sequence is defined by a(n) = max(0, n+10001) for n <= 0; a(n) = a(n-a(n-1)) + a(n-a(n-2)) + a(n-a(n-3)) + a(n-a(n-4)) + a(n-a(n-5)) + a(n-a(n-6)) + a(n-a(n-7)) for n > 0.

%C Sequences like this are more naturally considered with the first nonzero term in position 1. But this sequence would then match A000027 for its first 10001 terms.

%C This sequence has some stretches where it is quasilinear, but it appears to be ultimately chaotic.
