%C Complement of A136492. - _Reinhard Zumkeller_, Jan 01 2008

%C A136510(a(n)) = 2 for n>0. - _Reinhard Zumkeller_, Jan 03 2008

%C From _Robert Israel_, Jul 11 2018: (Start)

%C Contains A000079.

%C If x satisfies x^2 == 8*x + 1 (mod 2^m) and 0 < x < 2^(m-3) then x is in the sequence. Note that x^2 == 8*x + 1 has 4 solutions mod 2^m for m >= 3. Terms obtained in this way include 27, 283, 1773, 9965, 55579, 206573, .... (End)
