COMMENT

Concerning this sequence and A097004, A096994, A096995: in all 4 cases the initial value is 2^n and a certain function is iterated. They differ either in the function or in what is computed for that iteration.

Glossary: t+c = total count of transient+cycle terms, t = count of transient terms

Sequence 1: A062401 is iterated t+c is computed => this sequence

Sequence 2: A062402 is iterated t+c is computed => A097004

Sequence 3: A062401 is iterated t is computed => A096994

Sequence 4: A062402 is iterated t is computed => A096995
