Comments

By convention: a(n) = 0 if the cycle where n resides can be proven to be infinite. a(n) = -1 is the placeholder value if the cycle where n resides is only suspected to be infinite.

Is n=262 the first representative of runaway cycle? See A264972 and A264973.

Example

A264965(5) = 7 and A264965(7) = 5, thus a(5) = a(7) = 2.

Prog

(Scheme)
;; Very naive program which succumbs to the first infinite cycle:
(define (A264969 n) (let loop ((s 1) (next (A264965 n))) (if (equal? next n) s  (loop (+ 1 s) (A264965 next)))))
