COMMENTS
This sequence is a variant of A330332.
This sequence appears to diverge much more slowly than A330332.
EXAMPLE
a(0) = 0.
a(1) = 1.
a(2) = 2.
For n = 3:
- a(1) = 1 has appeared once, a(0) = 0 has appeared once,
- hence a(3) = 1+1 = 2.
For n = 4:
- a(2) = 2 has appeared twice, a(1) = 1 has appeared once,
- hence a(4) = 2+1 = 3.
