Formula

a(n) = A004001(n+2) + A004001(n) for n>=1.

Maple

b:=proc(n) option remember; if n<=2 then 1 else b(b(n-1))+b(n-b(n-1)): fi: end: seq(b(n), n=1..71): a:=proc(n) if n=0 then 1 else b(n+2)+b(n) fi end: seq(a(n), n=0..71);

Mathematica

Cw[0] = 0; Cw[1] = Cw[2] = 1; Cw[n_Integer?Positive] := Cw[n] = Cw[Cw[n - 1]] + Cw[n - Cw[n - 1]]; L[0] = 1; L[n_] := L[n] = Cw[n - 1] + Cw[n + 1]; Table[L[n], {n, 1, 200}]
