Year-end appeal: Please make a donation to the OEIS Foundation to support ongoing development and maintenance of the OEIS. We are now in our 61st year, we have over 378,000 sequences, and we’ve reached 11,000 citations (which often say “discovered thanks to the OEIS”).

COMMENTS
Precedents are discussed at A187224: adjusted joint rank sequence (AJRS) and the rank transform.
Row 1 (A003622, odds) is the AJRS of the lower Wythoff sequence (A000201) and the natural number sequence, A000027. Row 2 (A000201) is the AJRS of A000201 and row 1; row 3 (A005408) is the AJRS of A000201 and row 2; etc. The limit row (not shown) is the rank transform of A000201, which is A187413. The array shows the first five AJRSs and indicates fairly rapid convergence.
EXAMPLE
The array consists of five sequences:
1..4..6..9..12..14..17..19..22..25..27..30..33..35..38..40..
1..3..4..6..8...9...11..12..14..16..17..19..21..22..24..25..
1..3..5..7..9...11..13..15..17..19..21..23..25..27..29..31..
1..3..5..7..9...10..12..14..16..18..19..21..23..25..27..28..
1..3..5..7..9...10..13..14..16..18..20..22..24..26..28,,29..
