%N Row lengths of A082381: number of iterations of "sum of digits squared" until 1 or 4 is reached.
%C In the spirit of A082381, the map A003132 ("sum of digits squared") is applied at least once to the initial value n; the sequence gives the number of iterations until 1 or 4 is reached.
%F a(n) = O(log* n).
