%N Double-bitters: only even length runs in binary expansion.

%C Numbers whose set of base 4 digits is {0,3}. - _Ray Chandler_, Aug 03 2004

%C n such that there exists a permutation p_1, ..., p_n of 1, ..., n such that i + p_i is a power of 4 for every i. - _Ray Chandler_, Aug 03 2004

%C The first 2^n terms of the sequence could be obtained using the Cantor-like process for the segment [0, 4^n-1]. E.g., for n=1 we have [0, {1, 2}, 3] such that numbers outside of braces are the first 2 terms of the sequence; for n=2 we have [0, {1, 2}, 3, {4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11}, 12, {13, 14}, 15] such that the numbers outside of braces are the first 4 terms of the sequence, etc. - _Vladimir Shevelev_, Dec 17 2012

%C From _Emeric Deutsch_, Jan 26 2018: (Start)

%C Also, the indices of the compositions having only even parts. For the definition of the index of a composition, see A298644. For example, 195 is in the sequence since its binary form is 11000011 and the composition [2,4,2] has only even parts. 132 is not in the sequence since its binary form is 10000100 and the composition [1,4,1,2] also has odd parts.

%C The command c(n) from the Maple program yields the composition having index n. (End)

%C After the k-th step of generating the Koch snowflake curve, label the edges of the curve consecutively 0..3*4^k-1 starting from a vertex of the originating triangle. a(0), a(1), ... a(2^k-1) are the labels of the edges contained in one edge of the originating triangle. Add 4^k to each label to get the labels for the next edge of the triangle. Compare with A191108 in respect of the Sierpinski arrowhead curve. - _Peter Munn_, Aug 18 2019
