COMMENTS

Stage 0: we start from 1,2.

Stage 1: we add 2 copies of the block to the left of the last term (here the block 1) giving 1,2,1,1.

Stage 2: we add 2 copies of the block to the left of the last term (here the block 1,2,1) giving 1,2,1,1,1,2,1,1,2,1.

Stage 3: we add 2 copies of the block to the left of the last term (here the block 1,2,1,1,1,2,1,1,2) giving 1,2,1,1,1,2,1,1,2,1,1,2,1,1,1,2,1,1,2,1,2,1,1,1,2,1,1,2.

Iterate the process.
