%N Sequence obtained by swapping each (k*(2n))-th element of the nonnegative integers with the (k*(2n+1))-th element, for all k>0 in ascending order, omitting the first term.
%C The first term must be omitted because it does not converge.
%C Start with the sequence of nonnegative integers [0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, ...].
%C Swap all pairs specified by k=1, resulting in [1, 0, 3, 2, 5, 4, 7, 6, 9, 8, 11, ...], so the first term of the final sequence is 0 (No swaps for k>1 will affect this term).
%C Swap all pairs specified by k=2, resulting in [3, 0, 1, 2, 7, 4, 5, 6, 11, 8, 9, ...], so the second term of the final sequence is 1 (No swaps for k>2 will affect this term).
%C Swap all pairs specified by k=3, resulting in [2, 0, 1, 3, 7, 4, 8, 6, 11, 5, 9, ...], so the third term of the final sequence is 3 (No swaps for k>3 will affect this term).
%C Continue for all values of k.
%C a(n) is equivalent to -A327093(-n), if A327093 is extended to all integers.
%C It appears that n is an odd prime number iff a(n+1)=n-1. If true, is there a formal analogy with the Sieve of Eratosthenes (by swapping instead of marking terms), or is this another type of sieve? - _Jon Maiga_, May 31 2021
