Year-end appeal: Please make a donation to the OEIS Foundation to support ongoing development and maintenance of the OEIS. We are now in our 61st year, we have over 378,000 sequences, and we’ve reached 11,000 citations (which often say “discovered thanks to the OEIS”).

%N Indices (starting at 0) of integers in the increasing sequence S of nonnegative numbers that are representable in base 3/2 with digits {0, H=1/2, 1}.

%C Base 3/2 representations are considered with nonnegative exponents only (i.e. ending at the radix point).

%C Notice that this is not a positional number system as, for example, H0=3/4 < 1 (i.e., the lexicographical comparison of representations does not match the numerical comparison).

%C If we use base 3/2 with digits {0, 1, 2} instead (cf. A320272), this sequence correspond to the indices of even integers.

%F a(n) = number of positive numbers less than n that are representable in base 3/2 with digits {0, H=1/2, 1}. - _Max Alekseyev_, Oct 12 2018

%F a(n) = A320272(2*n-1).

%e The sequence S starts with 0, H=1/2, H0=3/4, 1, H00=9/8, HH=5/4, 10=3/2, H0H=13/8, H000=27/16, ....

%e The indices of first two integers in S are a(1)=0 and a(2)=3.
