COMMENT

Sequence A092878 gives the number of terms in row n. Shapiro describes how the numbers x with phi^n(x)=2 can be divided into 3 sections: I: 2^n < x < 2^(n+1), II: 2^(n+1) <= x <= 3^n, and III: 3^n < x <= 2*3^n. See A058812 for the numbers x for each n. - T. D. Noe (noe(AT)sspectra.com), Dec 05 2007
