%N A036453 a(n)=d[ d[ d[ d[ d[ n ] ] ] ] ], the 5th iterate of number-of-divisors 
               function with initial value of n.
%C A036453 The iterated d function rapidly converges to fixed point 2. In the 5-th 
               iterated d-sequence the first term different from the fixed point 
               2 appears at n=5040. The 6th and further iterated sequences have 
               very long initial segment of 2's. In the 6th one the first non-stationary 
               term is a(293318625600)=3. In such sequences any large value occurs 
               infinite many times and constructible.
%C A036453 Differs from A007395 for n=1, 5040, 7920, 8400, 9360, 10080, 10800 etc.
