Comments

The base 5/2 expansion is unique and thus the sum of digits function is well-defined.

Formula

a(n) = A007953(A024632(n)). - Amiram Eldar, Jul 30 2025

Example

In base 5/2 the number 7 is represented by 22 and so a(7) = 2+2 = 4.

Maple

a:= proc(n) `if`(n<1, 0, irem(n, 5, 'q')+a(2*q)) end:
seq(a(n), n=0..81);  # Alois P. Heinz, May 14 2021

Mathematica

a[n_] := a[n] = If[n == 0, 0, a[2 * Floor[n/5]] + Mod[n, 5]]; Array[a, 100, 0] (* Amiram Eldar, Jul 30 2025 *)
