A085308 Iterate function described in A085308[=reverse concatenation of prime factors]; a(n) is either 1# the fixed point[=prime] if it exists at all: 2# a(2k)=1 labels that no convergence with most even initial values, in contrary mostly rapid divergence is the case; 3# a(n)=0 if n=1 or if the iteration results in nontrivial attractor with cycle length larger than one. +0

FORMULA

Algorithm: 1# factorize n; 2# arrange prime-factors by decreasing size; 3# concatenate prime factors and interpret the result as decimal number.

EXAMPLE

n=even: remains even: m=100=2.2.5.5 ->{2,5} ->{5,2} ->52=a(100);

n=2^i.3^j: a(n)=2 since iteration list is {n,32,2}; these

are the known convergent even cases of initial value.

n=143: a(143)=44864859110711 because the iteration list is

{143,1311,23193,8593,66113,388917,547793,2273241,55311373,

989474313,8914183373,84859143973,528059391607,44864859110711};

a(n)= 0 for n=213,323,639,713 ending in

{713,3123,3473,15123} terminal orbit of length=4.

All possible cases occur: fixed p., divergence,terminal cycle.
