Formula

a(0) = 0; for n >= 1, for n odd, a(n) = 0, and for n even, a(n) = 1 + a(n-A000005(n)).

a(n) <= A155043(n).

For n >= 83, a(2*n) = 1+A322987(2*n).

Prog

(PARI) A322996(n) = if((!n)||(n%2), 0, 1+A322996(n-numdiv(n)));
(PARI) A322996(n) = { for(j=0, oo, if((!n)||(n%2), return(j)); n -= numdiv(n)); };
