FORMULA
If A079559(n)=0, a(n)=1; otherwise, if A213719(n)=1, a(n)=0; otherwise a(n) = 1+max(a(A213723(n)), a(A213724(n))),
PROG
(Scheme with memoization-macro definec): (definec (A213725 n) (cond ((zero? (A079559 n)) 1) ((not (zero? (A213719 n))) 0) (else (1+ (max (A213725 (A213723 n)) (A213725 (A213724 n)))))))
CROSSREFS
Differs from A213726 for the first time at n=208, where a(n)=5, while A213726(208)=6.
For all n, a(A179016(n)) = 0, a(A055938(n)) = 1, and a(A213717(n)) >= 2. Cf. A213726, A213727-A213731.
