%N Number of odd terms in f^n, where f = 1+x+x^2+x^2*y+x^2/y.

%C This is the number of ON cells in a certain 2-D CA in which the neighborhood of a cell is defined by f, and in which a cell is ON iff there was an odd number of ON cells in the neighborhood at the previous generation.

%C This is the odd-rule cellular automaton defined by OddRule 171 (see Ekhad-Sloane-Zeilberger "Odd-Rule Cellular Automata on the Square Grid" link).
