COMMENT

Replacing "if" by "while" in the definition gives standard binary (A007088).

a(2n+1) = a(n):1 and a(2n+2) = b(n):0, where b(n) is obtained from a(n) by incrementing the least signficant digit and : denotes string concatenation.

Every pair of 2's is separated by a 0, and every pair of significant 0's is separated by a 2.

a(n) has exactly floor(lg((n+2)/3))+1 digits [cf. A033484], and their sum is exactly floor(lg(n+1)) [A000523].

The i-th digit of a(n) is ceiling( floor( ((n+1-2^i) mod 2^(i+1))/2^(i-1) ) / 2).

A137951 gives values of terms interpreted as ternary numbers, a(n)=A007089(A137951(n)). - Reinhard Zumkeller (reinhard.zumkeller(AT)gmail.com), Feb 25 2008

FORMULA

Let a(0) = 0, and construct a(n) from a(n-1) by (i) incrementing the rightmost digit and (ii) if any digit is 2, replace the rightmost 2 with a 0 and increment the digit immediately to its left.

EXAMPLE

a(8) = 120 -> 121 -> 201 = a(9); a(9) = 201 -> 202 -> 210 = a(10)
