Formula

a(12n)=6*a(2n), a(12n+1)=12n+2, a(12n+2)=72n+6, a(12n+3)=12n+4, a(12n+4)=72n+18, a(12n+5)=12n+7, a(12n+6)=6*a(2n+1), a(12n+7)=72n+30, a(12n+8)=12n+9, a(12n+9)=72n+48, a(12n+10)=12n+11, a(12n+11)=72n+60.

Mathematica

a[0] = 0; a[n_] := a[n] = Switch[ Mod[n, 12], 0 | 6, 6*a[n/6], 1 | 3 | 8 | 10, n+1, 2 | 4 | 9 | 11, 6*n-6, 5, n+2, 7, 6*n-12]; Table[a[n], {n, 0, 63}] (* Jean-François Alcover, Dec 20 2011, after formula *)
