COMMENTS
a(n) tells how many iterations of A332893 are needed before 1 is reached, i.e., the distance of n from 1 in binary trees like A332815.
Each n > 0 occurs 2^(n-1) times in total.

FORMULA
a(n) = A252464(A332808(n)).
a(1) = 0, and for n > 1, a(n) = 1 + a(A332893(n)).
For n >= 1, a(A108546(n)) = n; for all n >= 0, a(2^n) = n.
For n > 1: (Start)
a(n) = 1 + a(n/2) if n is even, and a(n) = 1 + a(A332819(n)), if n is odd.
a(n) = A070939(A332816(n)).
a(n) >= A332899(n).
(End)
