%N A115386 a(1) = 1. For n >= 2, a(n) = sum of the two (not necessarily distinct)
earlier terms, a(j) and a(k), which maximizes d(a(j)+a(k)), where
d(m) is the number of positive divisors of m. a(n) = the maximum
(a(j)+a(k)) if more than one such sum has the maximum number of divisors.
%C A115386 In A115387 the minimum (a(j)+a(k)) is taken in case of a tie.

%e A115386 Sequence begins 1, 1, 2, 4. Now d(1+1) = 2, d(1+2) = 2, d(1+4) = 2, d(2+2)
= 3, d(2+4) = 4, d(4+4)=4. So d(2+4) and d(4+4) are tied for the
maximum number of divisors of a sum of two earlier terms of the sequence.
But we want the maximum sum among these two values. So a(5) = 4+4
= 8.
