COMMENTS
The last term I encountered was a(130) = 144. Is this sequence finite? Is a(130) = 144 the final term?
EXAMPLE
For n=7, the list of values in the trajectory is {7,49,97,130,10,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,...}; max = 130 > 7 = n, so 7 is in the sequence.
For n=32, list = {32,13,10,1,1,...}; max = 32 = n, so 32 is not in the sequence.
The sequence includes all positive integers < 145 except {1,10,13,23,31,32,44,100,103,109,129,130,133,139}.
