%N Trajectory of 266718 under the Reverse and Add! operation carried out in base 4, written in base 10.
%C 266718 = A075421(358) is the smallest term > 318 of A075421 whose base 4 trajectory provably does not contain a palindrome. A proof along the lines of Klaus Brockhaus, On the 'Reverse and Add!' algorithm in base 2, can be based on the formula given below. - The generating function given describes the sequence from a(26) onward; the g.f. for the complete sequence is known but more than twice as big.
