COMMENTS
In order to avoid the trivial case "0 followed by 1's", the sum of every pair of consecutive terms must appear in the sequence. - Rémy Sigrist, Apr 24 2019
From Paul Curtz, Apr 27 2019: This can be written as a triangle:
0
1 1
1 2 1
2 2 2 2
2 3 2 3 2
3 3 3 3 3 3
3 4 3 4 3 4 3

FORMULA
a(n) + a(n+1) = A002024(n). - Rémy Sigrist, Apr 24 2019
EXAMPLE
The sequence starts with 0,1,1,1,2,1,2,2,2,2,2,3,2,3,2...
a(1) = 0 means that the sum [a(n) + a(n+1)] is never = 0;
a(2) = 1 means that the sum [a(n) + a(n+1)] = 1 is true only once [this is the sum a(1) + a(2) = 0 + 1 = 1] ;
...
a(5) = 2 means that the sum [a(n) + a(n+1)] = 2 is true only twice [those are the sums a(2) + a(3) = 1 + 1 = 2 and a(3) + a(4) = 1 + 1 = 2];
...
a(12) = 3 means that the sum [a(n) + a(n+1)] = 3 is true only three times [those are the three sums a(4) + a(5) = 1 + 2 = 3; a(5) + a(6) = 2 + 1 = 3 and a(6) + a(7) = 1 + 2 = 3]; etc.
MATHEMATICA
m = 107; a[1]=0;
a24[n_] := Ceiling[(Sqrt[8n+1]-1)/2];
Array[a, m] /. Solve[Table[a[n] + a[n+1] == a24[n], {n, 1, m-1}]][[1]] (* Jean-François Alcover, Jun 02 2019, after Rémy Sigrist's formula *)
