%F a(n) = 0 iff n belongs to A332206.

%e The Koch curve starts (on a hexagonal lattice) as follows:

%e . . . . . . + . . . . . .

%e /8\

%e . . . . +---+ +---+ . . . .

%e 6\ 7 9 /10

%e . . . + . + . + . + . . .

%e /2\ /5 \ / \

%e . +---+ +---+ . . +---+ +---+ .

%e 0 1 3 4 12 13 15 16

%e Hence, a(6) = a(7) = a(9) = a(10) = 2.
