EXAMPLE
{1*sqrt(2)} has binary digits 0, 1, 1, 0, 1, 0, 1, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 1, 0, 0, 1,...
{3*sqrt(2)} has binary digits 0, 0, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 0, 0, 0, 0, 1, 1, 1, 0, 1,...
so that a(1) = 4 and a(2) = 6.
MATHEMATICA
z = 400; r = FractionalPart[Sqrt[2]]; s = FractionalPart[3*Sqrt[2]];
u = Flatten[{ConstantArray[0, -#[[2]]], #[[1]]}] &[RealDigits[r, 2, z]]
v = Flatten[{ConstantArray[0, -#[[2]]], #[[1]]}] &[RealDigits[s, 2, z]]
t1 = Table[If[u[[n]] == 0 && v[[n]] == 0, 1, 0], {n, 1, z}];
t2 = Table[If[u[[n]] == 0 && v[[n]] == 1, 1, 0], {n, 1, z}];
t3 = Table[If[u[[n]] == 1 && v[[n]] == 0, 1, 0], {n, 1, z}];
t4 = Table[If[u[[n]] == 1 && v[[n]] == 1, 1, 0], {n, 1, z}];
Flatten[Position[t1, 1]] (* A247455 *)
Flatten[Position[t2, 1]] (* A247456 *)
Flatten[Position[t3, 1]] (* A247457 *)
Flatten[Position[t4, 1]] (* A247458 *)
