a(n) <= 2n.
a(n) is a multiple of 4 and satisfies a(2n) = 2a(n). a(n+1) = 2 * A159257(n) + 4 if n = 2 (mod 3) and a(n+1) = 2 * A159257(n) otherwise. - Thomas Buchholz, May 22 2014

| Andries E. Brouwer: Yes, nothing wrong with that comment. But everything on this page attributed to Thomas Buchholz was taken from my webpage. No information is lost by deleting it. The webpage contains much more, so it is just a random factoid from there.

| M. F. Hasler: Andries, here on OEIS signatures do not mean that the person has found the fact, but that he added it to the OEIS. Credits to the discoverer are given via references and maybe additional comments etc.
