%N a(n) = A001511(n+1) + 1.
%C Number of divisors of 2n+2 of the form 2^k. - _Giovanni Teofilatto_, Jul 25 2007
%C Number of steps for iteration of map x -> (3/2)*ceiling(x) to reach an integer when started at 2*n+1.
%C Also number of steps for iteration of map x -> (3/2)*floor(x) to reach an integer when started at 2*n+3. - _Benoit Cloitre_, Sep 27 2003
%C The first time that a(n) = e+1 is when n is of the form 2^e - 1. - _Robert G. Wilson v_, Sep 28 2003
%C Let 2^k(n) = largest power of 2 dividing tangent number A000182(n). Then a(n-1) = 2*n - k(n). - _Yasutoshi Kohmoto_, Dec 23 2006
%C a(n) is the number of integers generated by b(i+1) = (3+2n)*(b(i) + b(i-1))/2, following these two initial values, b(0) = b(1) = 1. Thereafter only non-integers are generated. - _Richard R. Forberg_, Nov 09 2014
%C a(n) is the 2-adic valuation of 4*n+4, which is equal to the number of trailing 1-bits of 4*n+3 in binary. - _Ruud H.G. van Tol_, Sep 11 2023
