A126606 Fixed point of transformation of the seed sequence {0,2}. 4

%N Fixed point of transformation of the seed sequence {0,2}.

%C Start with s={0,2} If sum of two neighbor terms sum=s(i)+s(i+1) is even then insert the sum in between, otherwise insert abs(s(i)-s(i+1)); repeat the procedure.

%C {s(i),s(i+1)} => {s(i),s(i)+s(i+1), s(i+1)}, if s(i)+s(i+1) is even, otherwise {s(i),s(i+1)} => {s(i), abs(s(i)-s(i+1)), s(i+1)}.

%C Each row includes the previous one and then continues.

%C This sequence is analogous to Stern's diatomic series (A002487) but starting with 0,2 instead of 0,1. - _Tom Edgar_, May 08 2015

%F a(n) = 2 * A002487(n - 1). - _Reikku Kulon_, Oct 05 2008

%F a(1) = 0, a(2) = 2; for n>0: a(2n+1) = a(n+1) and a(2n) = a(n) + a(n+1). - _Tom Edgar_, May 08 2015
