%N A060236 If n mod 3 = 0 then a(n)=a(n/3), otherwise a(n)=n mod 3.
%C A060236 A cube-free word. Start with 1, apply the morphisms 1 -> 121, 2 -> 122,
take limit. See A080846 for another version.
%C A060236 Ultimate modulo 3: n-th digit of terms in "Ana sequence" (see A060032
for definition).
%C A060236 Equals A005148(n) reduced mod 3. In "On a sequence Arising in Series
for Pi" Morris Newman and Daniel Shanks conjectured that 3 never
divides A005148(n) and D. Zagier proved it. - Benoit Cloitre (benoit7848c(AT)orange.fr),

%C A060236 Also equals A038502(n) mod 3.
%C A060236 Last nonzero digit in ternary representation of n. - Frank Adams-Watters

%e A060236 a(10)=1 since 10=3^0*10 and 10 mod 3=1; a(72)=2 since 24=3^3*8 and 8
mod 3=2.
