%N Increasing sequence generated by these rules: a(1)=1, and if x is in a then 3x-2 and 4x-2 are in a.

%C This sequence represents a class of sequences generated by rules of the form "a(1)=1, and if x is in a then hx+i and jx+k are in a, where h,i,j,k are integers." If m>1, at least one of the numbers b(m)=(a(m)-i)/h and c(m)=(a(m)-k)/j is in the set N of natural numbers. Let d(n) be the n-th b(m) in N, and let e(n) be the n-th c(m) in N. Note that a is a subsequence of both d and e. Examples:
