COMMENT

Tersum m + n: write m and n in base 3 and add mod 3 with no carries, e.g. 5 + 8 = "21" + "22" = "10" = 1.

Also Sprague-Grundy values for game of Wyt Queens.

FORMULA

Periodic with period and saltus 3: a(n) = 3[ n/3 ] + ((n+2) mod 3).

a(n)= -2 + Sum_{k=0..n}{1/3*(-2*(k mod 3)-2*((k+1) mod 3)+7*((k+2) mod 3)}, with n>=0 - Paolo P. Lava (ppl(AT)spl.at), Oct 26 2007
