COMMENTS

From Stark: "alpha = 0.101101110111101111101111110 ... is irrational. For if alpha were rational, its decimal expansion would be periodic and have a period of length r starting with the k-th digit of the expansion.
"But by the very nature of alpha, there will be blocks of r digits, all 1, in this expansion after the k-th digit and the periodicity would then guarantee that everything after such a block of r digits would also be all ones.
"This contradicts the fact that there will always be zeros occurring after any given point in the expansion of alpha. Hence alpha is irrational."
Sequence B is called a reverse reluctant sequence of sequence A, if B is triangle array read by rows: row number k lists first k elements of the sequence A in reverse order. A023532 is reverse reluctant sequence of sequence A211666. - Boris Putievskiy, Jan 11 2013

Blocks of lengths 1, 2, 3, 4, ... of ones separated by a single zero.
a(n) = 1 - floor((sqrt(9+8n)-1)/2) + floor((sqrt(1+8n)-1)/2). - Paul Barry, May 25 2004
a(n) = A211666(m), where m = (t^2 + 3*t + 4)/2n - n, t = floor((-1 + sqrt(8*n-7))/2). - Boris Putievskiy, Jan 11 2013

EXAMPLE
|
As a triangular array written by rows, the sequence begins:
0;
1, 0;
1, 1, 0;
1, 1, 1, 0;
1, 1, 1, 1, 0;
1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 0;
1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 0;
...
(End)
