%N A120880 G.f. satisfies: A(x) = A(x^3)*(1 + 2*x + x^2); thus a(n) = 2^A062756(n), 
               where A062756(n) is the number of 1's in the ternary expansion of 
               n.
%C A120880 More generally, if g.f. of {a(n)} satisfies: A(x) = A(x^3)*(1 + b*x + 
               c*x^2), then a(n) = b^A062756(n)*c^A081603(n), where A062756(n) is 
               the number of 1's and A081603(n) is the number of 2's, in the ternary 
               expansion of n. This sequence is not the same as A059151.
%C A120880 a(n) is the number of entries in the n-th row of Pascal's triangle that 
               are congruent to 1 mod 3 minus the number of entries that are congruent 
               to 2 mod 3. - Naoki Sato (nsato7(AT)yahoo.ca), Jun 22 2007
%F A120880 a((3^n+1)/2) = 2^n; a(n) = a(floor(n/3))*2^[[n (mod 3)] (mod 2)], with 
               a(0)=1. G.f.: A(x) = prod_{n>=0} (1 + x^(3^n))^2. Self-convolution 
               of A039966. Row sums of triangle A117947(n,k) = balanced ternary 
               of C(n,k) mod 3.
