A228367 n-th element of the ruler function plus the highest power of 2 dividing n. 9

%N n-th element of the ruler function plus the highest power of 2 dividing n.

%C a(n) is also the length of the n-th pair of orthogonal line segments in a diagram of compositions, see example.

%C a(n) is also the largest part plus the number of parts of the n-th region of the mentioned diagram (if the axes both "x" and "y" are included in the diagram).

%C a(n) is also the number of toothpicks added at n-th stage to the structure of A228366. Essentially the first differences of A228366.

%C The equivalent sequence for partitions is A207779.

%F a(n) = A001511(n) + A006519(n).

%e Illustration of initial terms (n = 1..16) using a diagram of compositions in which A001511(n) is the length of the horizontal line segment in row n and A006519(n) is the length of the vertical line segment ending in row n. Hence a(n) is the length of the n-th pair of orthogonal line segments. Also counting both the x-axis and the y-axis we have that A001511(n) is also the largest part of the n-th region of the diagram and A006519(n) is also the number of parts of the n-th region of the diagram, see below.

%e Counting both the x-axis and the y-axis we have that A038712(n) is the area (or the number of cells) of the n-th region of the diagram. Note that adding only the x-axis to the diagram we have a tree. - _Omar E. Pol_, Nov 07 2018
