From Kevin Ryde, Sep 12 2020: (Start)
a(n) is the output value at the state reached at the most significant 1-bit of n (or the initial state A if n=0). Low 1-bits of n alternate between A and B and then a 0-bit goes to C or D respectively. So a(n) = 0 or 1 according as the number of low 1-bits of n is even or odd, except n = 2^k-1 has no 0-bits at all so remains in A or B and a(n) = 0.
An increment n+1 changes low 1-bits to low 0-bits, and their parity is the period-doubling sequence A035263. This sequence differs from A035263 at n = 2^k-1 for k odd since the final state B is a(n) = 0 whereas A035263(n+1) = 1. (For k even, final state A is a(n) = 0 the same as A035263(n+1) = 0.)
