COMMENTS
For general Modd n see a comment on A203571. This sequence gives the Modd 17 residues of the odd numbers not divisible by 17, which are given in A204458.
The underlying periodic sequence with period length 34 is periodic (0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 0, 16, 15, 14, 13, 12, 11, 10, 9, 8, 7, 6, 4, 3, 2, 1). This sequence with offset 0 is called P_17 or Modd17.
FORMULA
a(n) = A204458(n) (Modd 17) := Modd17(A204458(n)), n>=1, with the periodic sequence Modd17, with period length 34, defined in the comment section.
O.g.f.: x*(1+x^15+3*x*(1+x^13)+5*x^2*(1+x^11)+7*x^3*(1+x^9)+9*x^4*(1+x^7)+11*x^5*(1+x^5)+ 13*x^6*(1+x^3)+15*x^7*(1+x))/(1-x^16) = x*(1+x)^2*(1+x^2)*(1+x^4)/((1+x^8)*(1-x)).
EXAMPLE

Modd 17: 1, 3, 5, 7, 9, 11, 13, 15, 15, 13, 11, 9, 7, 5,...
