COMMENT

It appears that the multipliers approach infinity while the divisors approach some finite value, although both are increasing over the given range.

EXAMPLE

A143176(3) = 6. Multiplying by two gives 12, the next term, so a(3) = 2.

A143176(13) = 1560. Until now A143176 has always increased, but A143176(14) = 1260. Dividing by two gives 780; a(13) = -2.
