A348080 A variant of Van Eck's sequence: For n >= 1, if there exists an m < n such that a(m) = a(n), take the largest such m and set a(n+1) = n XOR m; otherwise a(n+1) = 0. Start with a(1)=0. 2

%N A variant of Van Eck's sequence: For n >= 1, if there exists an m < n such that a(m) = a(n), take the largest such m and set a(n+1) = n XOR m; otherwise a(n+1) = 0. Start with a(1)=0.

%C XOR denotes the bitwise XOR operator.

%C This sequence is unbounded, and contains infinitely many 0's.
