A336717 a(n) is the least k such that R(k) = n for some random Fibonacci sequence R (a random Fibonacci sequence R satisfies R(0) = 0, R(1) = 1, and for m > 0, R(m+1) = R(m) + (-1)^r(m) * R(m-1) where r is a sequence of integers). 2

%C This sequence is well defined as the random Fibonacci sequence A092942 contains every nonnegative integers.

%F a(A000045(n)) = n for any n <> 2.

%e For n = 4:

%e - random Fibonacci sequences R may start as follows:

%e R(0) R(1) R(2) R(3) R(4) R(5) R(6)

%e ---- ---- ---- ---- ---- ---- ----

%e 0 1 1 2 3 5 8

%e 0 1 1 2 3 5 2

%e 0 1 1 2 3 1 4

%e 0 1 1 2 3 1 -2

%e 0 1 1 2 1 3 4

%e 0 1 1 2 1 3 2

%e 0 1 1 2 1 -1 0

%e 0 1 1 2 1 -1 -2

%e 0 1 1 0 1 1 2

%e 0 1 1 0 1 1 0

%e 0 1 1 0 -1 -1 0

%e 0 1 1 0 -1 -1 -2

%e - the value 4 first appears in column R(6),

%e - so a(4) = 6.
