COMMENT
|
1. In these iteration chains the number of non-2-powers seem to be dominant. 2. The sequence is not monotonic.
|
|
EXAMPLE
|
n=10, the iteration chain of 43 terms is {6469693230,5447823150,4315810350,...,188416,98304,65536,32768,...,4,2,1,0} in which 65536 is the largest power of 2 is 2^14, a(10)=16 for n=11 the length is 61, including 54 non-2 powers,7 powers of 2,of which the largest is 2^6 thus a(11)=6 while a(10)=16.
