%N Solution (c(n)) of the system of 3 complementary equations in Comments.

%C Define sequences a(n), b(n), c(n) recursively, starting with a(0) = 1, b(0) = 2:

%C a(n) = least new;

%C b(n) = least new k >= a(n) + b(n-1);

%C c(n) = a(n) + 2 b(n);

%C where "least new k" means the least positive integer not yet placed. The sequences a,b,c partition the positive integers.
