%N a(n) = nimsum(n+(n+1)+(n+2)).

%C Start with 3. Then repeat the cycle: subtract 3, add 5. The odd-indexed terms give the odd numbers, beginning with 3. The even-indexed terms give the even numbers, beginning with 0. In the infinite sequence, every positive integer except 1 is listed.

%F a(n) = 1 + n + 2*(-1)^n. - _R. J. Mathar_, Dec 02 2010

%F From _Colin Barker_, Nov 05 2015: (Start)

%F a(n) = a(n-1) + a(n-2) - a(n-3) for n>2.

%e For n = 3, Nimsum(3 + 4 + 5) = 2, as shown: 011 XOR 100 XOR 101 010.
