Formula

Union of 2*A001969 and 2*A001969+1. With initial index 0: a(2n+1) = a(2n)+1, a(4n) = a(2n)+4n, a(4n+2) = -a(2n)+12n+6. - Ralf Stephan, Oct 17 2003

Conjecture: a(n) = 2*n + (-1)^(n-A000120(n-1)) - (3+(-1)^n)/2. - Velin Yanev, Dec 21 2016

Example

G.f. = x + 6*x^2 + 7*x^3 + 10*x^4 + 11*x^5 + 12*x^6 + 13*x^7 + 18*x^8 + ...
