COMMENT
|
The difference of successive terms follows the pattern 2,4,2,4,2,4,2,4,2... The sequence is obtained by interleaving two arithmetic progressions with common difference 6 and the first term 1 and 3 respectively. i.e. 1,7,13,19,25,31,37,43,... 3,9,15,21,27,33,39,...
Comment from Roger L. Bagula (rlbagulatftn(AT)yahoo.com), Mar 17 2005: This sequence can also be constructed from 3 X 3 matrices based on lucky numbers (cf. A000959). Let A=3 X 3 matrix Lucky[n+m+1], B=3 X 3 matrix Lucky[n+m+2]; M=B.A^(-1); then a(n) = unique elements of M^n*A. See Mathematica code.
