%N P-positions for game of UpMark.

%C The following description, due to D. R. Hofstadter, Email, Oct 23 2014, is presumably equivalent to Fraenkel's. Begin with 1, and then each new member is 2k-1, where k is the smallest unused non-member of the sequence. Thus k starts out as 2, so 2k-1 = 3, so 3 is the sequence's second member. The next value of k is 4, giving 2k-1 = 7, so 7 is the sequence's third member. Then k = 5, so 9 is the next member. Then k = 6, so 11 is the next member. Then k = 8, so 15 is the next member. Etc. - _N. J. A. Sloane_, Oct 26 2014

%C It appears that this is the sequence of positions of 1 in the 1-limiting word of the morphism 0 -> 10, 1 -> 00; see A284948. - _Clark Kimberling_, Apr 18 2017

%C It appears that this sequence gives the positions of 0 in the limiting 0-word of the morphism 0->11, 1-> 01. See A285383. - _Clark Kimberling_, Apr 26 2017

%C It appears that this sequence gives integers that are congruent to 2^k+1 (mod 2^(k+1)), where k is any odd integer >=1. - _Jules Beauchamp_, Dec 04 2023

%o (Haskell)

%o import Data.List (delete)

%o a171947 n = a171947_list !! (n-1)

%o a171947_list = 1 : f [2..] where

%o f (w:ws) = y : f (delete y ws) where y = 2 * w - 1

%o -- _Reinhard Zumkeller_, Oct 26 2014

%Y Complement of A171946. Essentially identical to A072939.

%Y A249034 gives missing odd numbers.

%Y Cf. A003159.

%K nonn,easy

%O 1,2
