COMMENTS
This sequence has been checked up to a(108) = 106838266736 without reaching 42. It seems to be slowly climbing in value in both the negative and positive directions. Its period is either extremely large or more probably infinite.

FORMULA
a(n+1) = A073846(a(n)).
a(n-1) = A073898(a(n)).
EXAMPLE
a(1) = A073846(a(0)) = A073846(42) = 73.
