%N a(n) is the number of initial terms in the row of length 2^n of A322050 that agree with the limiting sequence A322049.
%C Seems to be identical to A005578 with the exception of a(3) = 4. - _Omar E. Pol_, Dec 17 2018
%F Conjecture: For n >= 5, a(n) = 2*a(n-1)-1 if n is odd, 2*a(n-1) if n is even.
%F Conjectures from _Colin Barker_, Dec 29 2018: (Start)
%F G.f.: (1 - x - x^2 + x^3 - 2*x^4 - x^5 + 2*x^6) / ((1 - x)*(1 + x)*(1 - 2*x)).
%F a(n) = (2^n + 2) / 3 for n even and n>3.
%F a(n) = (2^n + 1) / 3 for n odd and n>3.
%F a(n) = 2*a(n-1) + a(n-2) - 2*a(n-3) for n>6.
%F (End)
