%N Number of trailing zeros in A097801-base.

%C A097801-base uses values 1, 2, 2*3, 2*3*5, 2*3*5*7, 2*3*5*7*9, 2*3*5*7*9*11, 2*3*5*7*9*11*13, 2*3*5*7*9*11*13*15, ..., for its digit-positions, instead of primorials (A002110), thus up to 1889 = 2*3*5*7*9 - 1 = 9*A002110(4) - 1 its representation is identical with the primorial base A049345.

%C From _Amiram Eldar_, Mar 10 2021: (Start)

%C The asymptotic density of the occurrences of k is 1/2 if k=0, and 2*k/(A097801(k+1)) otherwise.

%C The asymptotic mean of this sequence is sqrt(e*Pi/2)*erf(1/sqrt(2))/2 = 0.7053430673..., where erf(x) is the error function. (End)

%F For odd n, a(n) = 0; for even n, a(n) = the largest k such that A097801(k) divides n.

%e In A097801-base number 1890 = 2*3*5*7*9 is expressed as "100000", thus a(1890) = 5.

%Y Cf. A097801, A341356, A341513.

%Y Differs from A276084 for the first time at n=1890, as a(1890) = 5, while A276084(1890) = 4.
