COMMENT
|
A cube-free word. Start with 1, apply the morphisms 1 -> 121, 2 -> 122, take limit. See A080846 for another version.
Ultimate modulo 3: n-th digit of terms in "Ana sequence" (see A060032 for definition).
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), Jun 22 2002
Also equals A038502(n) mod 3.
Last nonzero digit in ternary representation of n. - Frank Adams-Watters (FrankTAW(AT)Netscape.net), Apr 01 2006

FORMULA
|
a(3*n) = a(n), a(3*n + 1) = 1, a(3*n + 2) = 2. - Michael Somos Jul 29 2009
|
|
EXAMPLE
|
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.
