%C This sequence is similar to the Hofstadter sequence A005243 except the decomposition into summands has to be unique.

%C This sequence has similarities with Ulam numbers (A002858); here we consider unique sums of consecutive terms, there unique sums of two distinct terms. - _Rémy Sigrist_, Jan 02 2022

%e a(7)=10 because 2+3+5=10 is the only way to sum up consecutive terms. 11 is not contained in the sequence because 11=5+6=1+2+3+5 has got more than one decompositions.

%o (PARI) See Links section.

%Y Cf. A002858, A005243, A118065, A118164, A118166.
