COMMENTS
This is a subsequence of A260003 since f(2,x,y)= f(1, f(2,x,y-1), f(2,x,y-1)+y).
In this list we suppose that y>0. If we take y=0, all the natural numbers would be in the sequence.
To evaluate the Sudan function see A260002-A260003.
EXAMPLE
f(2,0,1) = f(1, f(2,0,0), f(2,0,0)+1) = f(1,0,1) = 2^1(0+2)-1-2 = 1;
f(2,0,2) = f(1, [f(2,0,1)], [f(2,0,1)+1+1]) = f(1,1,3) = 2^3(1+2)-3-2 = 19;
CROSSREFS
