%N For any n >= 0: consider all pairs of numbers (x, y) whose binary representations can be interleaved (or shuffled) to produce the binary representation of n (possibly with leading zeros); a(n) is the greatest possible value of x AND y (where AND denotes the bitwise AND operator).

%e For n = 5:
%e - the binary representation of 5 is "101",
%e - the possible values for (x, y), restricted to x >= y without loss of generality, are:
%e bin(5) x y x AND y
%e ------- - - -------
%e "101" 5 0 0
%e "1/01" 1 1 1
%e "10/1" 2 1 0
%e "1/0/1" 3 0 0
%e - hence a(5) = 1.
