%N Increasing sequence generated by these rules: a(1)=1, and if x is in a then [3x/2]+1 and 3x+1 are in a, where [ ]=floor.

%C This sequence represents a class of sequences generated by rules of the form "a(1)=1, and if x is in a then floor(hx+i) and floor(jx+k) are in a, where h and j are rational numbers and i and k are positive integers." In the following examples, the floor function is denoted by [ ].

%C A191323: [3x/2]+1, 3x+1

%C A191324: [3x/2]+1, 3x+2

%C A191325: [3x/2], [5x/2]

%C A191326: [3x/2], [7x/2]

%C A191327: [5x/2], [7x/2]

%C A191328: [5x/3], [7x/3]

%C Other families of sequences generated by "rules" are listed at A191803, A191106, A101113 and A191203.
