If the n-th 3-smooth number, A003586(n), equals 2^i * 3^j for some i, j >= 0, then the a(n)-th 3-smooth number, A003586(a(n)), equals 2^j * 3^i.

COMMENTS
This sequence is a self-inverse permutation of the positive integers with infinitely many fixed points (A202821).
FORMULA
A022328(a(n)) = A022329(n).
A022329(a(n)) = A022328(n).
a(n) = n iff n belongs to A202821.
sign(a(n) - n) = sign(A022328(n) - A022329(n)).
EXAMPLE
A003586(8) = 12 = 2^2 * 3^1, A003586(10) = 18 = 2^1 * 3^2, so a(8) = 10 and.
