COMMENT

Zero is assumed to be represented as 0.

For n>1, n appears 2^(n-1) times. - Lekraj Beedassy (blekraj(AT)yahoo.com), Apr 12 2006

a(n) is the permanent of the n X n 0-1 matrix whose (i,j) entry is 1 iff i=1 or i=j or i=2*j. For example, a(4)=3 is per([[1, 1, 1, 1], [1, 1, 0, 0], [0, 0, 1, 0], [0, 1, 0, 1]]). - David Callan (callan(AT)stat.wisc.edu), Jun 07 2006

FORMULA

a(0) = 1; for n >= 1, a(n) = 1 + floor(log_2(n)) = 1 + A000523(n).

G.f.: 1 + 1/(1-x) * Sum(k>=0, x^2^k). - Ralf Stephan (ralf(AT)ark.in-berlin.de), Apr 12 2002

a(0)=1, a(1)=1 and a(n)=1+a(floor(n/2)) - Benoit Cloitre (benoit7848c(AT)orange.fr), Dec 02 2003

a(n) = A000120(n) + A023416(n). - Lekraj Beedassy (blekraj(AT)yahoo.com), Apr 12 2006

EXAMPLE

8 = 1000 in binary has length 4.

MAPLE

A070939 := proc(n); Digits := 20: if n=0 then 1 else 1+floor(evalf(0.0000001 + log(n)/log(2))); fi; end;

Table[Length[IntegerDigits[n, 2]], {n, 0, 50}] - Stefan Steinerberger (stefan.steinerberger(AT)gmail.com), Apr 01 2006

PROGRAM

(PARI) a(n)=if(n<1, n==0, floor(log(n)/log(2))+1)

CROSSREFS

Cf. A070940, A070941, A001511, A000523.

A029837(n+1) gives the length of binary representation of n without the leading zeros (i.e. when zero is represented as the empty sequence). For n>0 this is equal to a(n).

This is Guy Steele's sequence GS(4,4) (see A135416).
