A306584 For any n >= 0, let f_n be the representation of n in the factorial number system: for any i >= 0, 0 <= f_n(i) <= i and n = Sum_{i >= 0} f_n(i) * i!. The representation of a(n) in the factorial number system, say g, satisfies g(i) = f_n(f_n(i)) for any i >= 0. 2

%F a(n) <= n.

%F a(n) = A306605(n, n).

%e For n = 42:

%e - 42 = 4! + 3*3!,

%e - f_42(0) = 0, f_42(f_42(0)) = 0,

%e - f_42(1) = 0, f_42(f_42(0)) = 0,

%e - f_42(2) = 0, f_42(f_42(2)) = 0,

%e - f_42(3) = 3, f_42(f_42(3)) = 3,

%e - f_42(4) = 1, f_42(f_42(4)) = 0,

%e - f_42(k) = 0, f_42(f_42(k)) = 0 for any k > 4,

%e - hence a(42) = 3*3! = 18.
