%F From _Benoit Cloitre_, Dec 19 2002: (Start)

%F a(0) = 0, a(4n+i) = a(n)+i for 0 <= i <= 3.

%F a(n) = n - 3*Sum_{k>0} floor(n/4^k) = n - 3*A054893(n). (End)

%F G.f.: (Sum_{k>=0} (x^(4^k) + 2*x^(2*4^k) + 3*x^(3*4^k))/(1 + x^(4^k) + x^(2*4^k) + x^(3*4^k))/(1-x). - _Franklin T. Adams-Watters_, Nov 03 2005

%F a(n) = A138530(n,4) for n > 3. - _Reinhard Zumkeller_, Mar 26 2008

%F a(n) = Sum_{k>=0} A030386(n,k). - _Philippe Deléham_, Oct 21 2011

%F a(n) = A007953(A007090(n)). - _Reinhard Zumkeller_, Mar 19 2015

%F a(0) = 0; a(n) = a(n - 4^floor(log_4(n))) + 1. - _Ilya Gutkovskiy_, Aug 23 2019

%F Sum_{n>=1} a(n)/(n*(n+1)) = 4*log(4)/3 (Shallit, 1984). - _Amiram Eldar_, Jun 03 2021

%e a(20) = 1+1+0 = 2 because 20 is written as 110 base 4.
