%p Maple code from _N. J. A. Sloane_, May 18 2009. First define old version with offset 1:

%p S:=proc(n) option remember; local i,j;

%p if n <= 0 then RETURN(0); fi;

%p if n <= 2 then RETURN(2^(n-1)); fi;

%p i:=floor(log(n)/log(2));

%p j:=n-2^i;

%p if j=0 then RETURN(n/2+1); fi;

%p if j<2^i-1 then RETURN(2*S(j)+S(j+1)); fi;

%p if j=2^i-1 then RETURN(2*S(j)+S(j+1)-1); fi;

%p -1;

%p end;

%p # Now change the offset:

%p T:=n->S(n+1);

%p G := (1 + x) * mul(1 + x^(2^k-1) + 2*x^(2^k),k=1..20);

%t nmax = 78;

%t G = x*((1 + x)/(1 - x)) * Product[ (1 + x^(2^n - 1) + 2*x^(2^n)), {n, 1, Log2[nmax] // Ceiling}];

%t CoefficientList[G + O[x]^nmax, x] // Differences (* _Jean-François Alcover_, Jul 21 2022 *)

%Y Equals A151688 divided by 2. - _N. J. A. Sloane_, Jun 03 2009

%Y For generating functions of the form Prod_{k>=c} (1+a*x^(2^k-1)+b*x^2^k)) for the following values of (a,b,c) see: (1,1,0) A160573, (1,1,1) A151552, (1,1,2) A151692, (2,1,0) A151685, (2,1,1) A151691, (1,2,0) A151688 and A152980, (1,2,1) A151550, (2,2,0) A151693, (2,2,1) A151694.

%Y Equals A147646/4. - _N. J. A. Sloane_, May 01 2009
