%e The orbit of 0 under repeated application of A359194 is:
%e 0, 1, 0, ...
%e So a(0) = 0, a(1) = 1.
%e The orbit of 2 under repeated application of A359194 is:
%e 2, 1, 0, 1, 0, ...
%e So a(2) = 0.
%e The orbit of 3 under repeated application of A359194 is:
%e 3, 6, 13, 24, 55, 90, 241, 300, 123, 142, 85, 0, 1, 0, ...
%e So a(3) = 0, a(6) = 1, a(13) = 2, a(24) = 3, a(55) = 4, etc.
