A098197 Smallest number m such that the trajectory of m under iteration of cototient function[=A051953] contains exactly n distinct numbers (including m and the fixed point=0). Or: the required number of iterations[=operations,transitions] is n-1. +0

COMMENT

Analogous to A007755. Separating prime and composite least numbers is not more informative [contrary to totient-iterations] because trajectory-length=3 for all primes and except 2, all terms here are composite numbers.

EXAMPLE

Trajectories for lengths=n=1,2,3,4 are: {0},{1,0},{2,1,0},{4,2,1,0}

n=15:{390,294,210,162,108,72,48,32,16,8,4,2,1,0}
