%N Numbers whose binary representation ends in an odd number of zeros.

%C Fraenkel (2010) called these the "dopey" numbers.

%C Also n such that A035263(n)=0 or A050292(n) = A050292(n-1).

%C Indices of even numbers in A033485. - _Philippe Deléham_, Mar 16 2004

%C a(n) is an odious number (see A000069) for n odd; a(n) is an evil number (see A001969) for n even. - _Philippe Deléham_, Mar 16 2004

%C Indices of even numbers in A007913, in A001511. - _Philippe Deléham_, Mar 27 2004

%C This sequence consists of the increasing values of n such that A097357(n) is even. - _Creighton Dement_, Aug 14 2004

%C Numbers with an odd number of 2's in their prime factorization (e.g., 8 = 2*2*2). - _Mark Dow_, Sep 04 2007

%C Equals the set of natural numbers not in A003159 or A141290. - _Gary W. Adamson_, Jun 22 2008

%C Represents the set of CCW n-th moves in the standard Tower of Hanoi game; and terms in even rows of a [1, 3, 5, 7, 9, ...] * [1, 2, 4, 8, 16, ...] multiplication table. Refer to the example. - _Gary W. Adamson_, Mar 20 2010

%C Refer to the comments in A003159 relating to A000041 and A174065. - _Gary W. Adamson_, Mar 21 2010

%C If the upper s-Wythoff sequence of s is s, then s=A036554. (See A184117 for the definition of lower and upper s-Wythoff sequences.) Starting with any nondecreasing sequence s of positive integers, A036554 is the limit when the upper s-Wythoff operation is iterated. For example, starting with s=(1,4,9,16,...) = (n^2), we obtain lower and upper s-Wythoff sequences

%C a=(1,3,4,5,6,8,9,10,11,12,14,...) = A184427;

%C b=(2,7,12,21,31,44,58,74,...) = A184428.

%C Then putting s=a and repeating the operation gives

%C b'=(2,6,8,10,13,17,20,...), which has the same first four terms as A036554. - _Clark Kimberling_, Jan 14 2011

%C Or numbers having infinitary divisor 2, or the same, having factor 2 in Fermi-Dirac representation as a product of distinct terms of A050376. - _Vladimir Shevelev_, Mar 18 2013

%C Thus, numbers not in A300841 or in A302792. Equally, sequence 2*A300841(n) sorted into ascending order. - _Antti Karttunen_, Apr 23 2018

%e From _Gary W. Adamson_, Mar 20 2010: (Start)

%e Equals terms in even numbered rows in the following multiplication table:

%e (rows are labeled 1,2,3,... as with the Towers of Hanoi disks)

%e 1, 3, 5, 7, 9, 11, ...

%e 2, 6, 10, 14, 18, 22, ...

%e 4, 12, 20, 28, 36, 44, ...

%e 8, 24, 40, 56, 72, 88, ...

%e ...

%e As shown, 2, 6, 8, 10, 14, ...; are in even numbered rows, given the row with (1, 3, 5, 7, ...) = row 1.

%e The term "5" is in an odd row, so the 5th Towers of Hanoi move is CW, moving disc #1 (in the first row).

%e a(3) = 8 in row 4, indicating that the 8th Tower of Hanoi move is CCW, moving disc #4.

%e A036554 bisects the positive nonzero natural numbers into those in the A036554 set comprising 1/3 of the total numbers, given sufficiently large n.

%e This corresponds to 1/3 of the TOH moves being CCW and 2/3 CW. Row 1 of the multiplication table = 1/2 of the natural numbers, row 2 = 1/4, row 3 = 1/8 and so on, or 1 = (1/2 + 1/4 + 1/8 + 1/16 + ...). Taking the odd-indexed terms of this series given offset 1, we obtain 2/3 = 1/2 + 1/8 + 1/32 + ..., while sum of the even-indexed terms is 1/3. (End)
