a(n) is the number at the apex of a triangle whose base contains the distinct powers of 2 summing to n (in ascending order), and each number in a higher row is the sum of the two numbers directly below it; a(0) = 0.

%F a(n) >= n with equality iff n = 0 or n belongs to A048645.

%F a(2*n) = 2*a(n).

%e For n = 27:

%e - we have the following triangle:

%e 47

%e 13 34

%e 3 10 24

%e 1 2 8 16

%e - so a(27) = 47.
