Year-end appeal: Please make a donation to the OEIS Foundation to support ongoing development and maintenance of the OEIS. We are now in our 61st year, we have over 378,000 sequences, and we’ve reached 11,000 citations (which often say “discovered thanks to the OEIS”).

%C Note that A246694 has offset 0, so the values here are off by 1 from the positions as given by the indices (b-file or list) in that sequence. - _M. F. Hasler_, Nov 17 2014

%e A246694 begins with 1, 1, 2, 3, 2, 4, 3, 5, 4, 6, 7, 5, 8, 6, 9, 7, so that, for a(n) = position of first n and b(n) = position of last n, we have a = (1,3,4,6,8,10,...) and b = (2,5,7,9,12,...).
