%N Number of steps where the modified Juggler sequence reaches a new record (A095910).
%C The modified Juggler sequence: begin with x and if x is even, round(sqrt(x)) -> x and if x is odd, round(sqrt(x3)) -> x and repeat until x = 1, count the iterations.
%C The records A094696 and A095911 are probably the same sequence. - _R. J. Mathar_, Jul 28 2007
