Year-end appeal: Please make a donation to the OEIS Foundation to support ongoing development and maintenance of the OEIS. We are now in our 61st year, we have over 378,000 sequences, and we’ve reached 11,000 citations (which often say “discovered thanks to the OEIS”).

COMMENTS
See A236602 for definitions regarding canonical Gray sequences (CGC). The CGC's of a given length can be sorted 'lexically'; for example, the CGC {0 1 5 4 6 7 3 2} precedes {0 1 5 7 3 2 6 4}. This sequence is then the flattened triangular table of the terms of the lowest CGC for each even length L, where L = 2*<row index>.
Note: zero unequivocally marks the start of each CGC.
