Formula

a(2^m) = A003042(m+1).

a(n) = 2 * A236602(n) for n >= 2. - Alois P. Heinz, Feb 01 2022

Example

The following Gray codes of length 10 contain only the numbers between 0 and 9:
  0, 2, 3, 7, 6, 4, 5, 1, 9, 8;
  0, 2, 6, 4, 5, 7, 3, 1, 9, 8;
  0, 4, 5, 7, 6, 2, 3, 1, 9, 8;
  0, 4, 6, 2, 3, 7, 5, 1, 9, 8;
  0, 8, 9, 1, 3, 2, 6, 7, 5, 4;
  0, 8, 9, 1, 3, 7, 5, 4, 6, 2;
  0, 8, 9, 1, 5, 4, 6, 7, 3, 2;
  0, 8, 9, 1, 5, 7, 3, 2, 6, 4.
Therefore a(5) = 8.
