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”).

COMMENTS
Cody M. Haderlie (see A269304) conjectures that the trajectory of any initial value will eventually merge with this sequence. The trajectory of 2, for example, begins 2, 4, 7, 9, 13, 15, 19, 21, 25, ... and from 7 on coincides with this sequence. See A271418.
