%C Consider a simple cellular automaton, a grid of binary cells c(i,j), where the next state of the grid is calculated by applying the following rule to each cell: c(i,j) = ( c(i+1,j-1) + c(i+1,j+1) + c(i-1,j-1) + c(i-1,j+1) ) mod 2 If we start with a single cell having the value 1 and all the others 0, then the aggregate values of the subsequent states of the grid will be the terms in this sequence. - Andras Erszegi (erszegi.andras(AT)chello.hu), Mar 31 2006. See link for initial states. - _N. J. A. Sloane_, Feb 12 2015

%F Formulas due to _Paul D. Hanna_: (Start)

%F G.f.: Product_{k>=0} 1 + 4x^(2^k).

%F a(n) = Product_{k=0..log_2(n)} 4^b(n, k), b(n, k)=coefficient of 2^k in binary expansion of n.

%F a(n) = Sum_{k=0..n} (C(n, k) mod 2)*3^A000120(n-k). (End)
