A308551 Start with an empty stack S; for n = 1, 2, 3, ..., interpret the binary representation of n from left to right as follows: in case of bit 1, push the number 1 on top of S, in case of bit 0, replace the two numbers on top of S with their sum; a(n) gives the number on top of S after processing n. 4

%N Start with an empty stack S; for n = 1, 2, 3, ..., interpret the binary representation of n from left to right as follows: in case of bit 1, push the number 1 on top of S, in case of bit 0, replace the two numbers on top of S with their sum; a(n) gives the number on top of S after processing n.

%C After processing n, S has A268289(n) elements, the sum of which is A000788(n).

%C Every positive integer appears infinitely many times in the sequence.

%C The sequence has the same shape when represented at different scales.

%F a(n) = 1 iff n is odd.

%F a(A020989(k)) = k + 1 for any k >= 0.

%F If n is in A014486, then a(n) = a(n-1) + A000120(n) = 1 + A000120(n). - _Charlie Neder_, Jun 07 2019
