COMMENTS
A binary index of n (row n of A048793) is any position of a 1 in its reversed binary expansion. A set-system is a finite set of finite nonempty sets. We define the set-system with BII-number n to be obtained by taking the binary indices of each binary index of n. Every finite set of finite nonempty sets has a different BII-number. For example, 18 has reversed binary expansion (0,1,0,0,1), and since the binary indices of 2 and 5 are {2} and {1,3} respectively, the BII-number of {{2},{1,3}} is 18.

5: {{1},{1,2}}
6: {{2},{1,2}}
8: {{3}}
9: {{1},{3}}
10: {{2},{3}}
11: {{1},{2},{3}}
13: {{1},{1,2},{3}}
14: {{2},{1,2},{3}}
17: {{1},{1,3}}
19: {{1},{2},{1,3}}
21: {{1},{1,2},{1,3}}
22: {{2},{1,2},{1,3}}
24: {{3},{1,3}}
26: {{2},{3},{1,3}}
28: {{1,2},{3},{1,3}}
34: {{2},{2,3}}
