A297998

Solution of the complementary equation a(n) = a(1)*b(n-1) - a(0)*b(n-2) + floor(5*n/2), where a(0) = 1, a(1) = 2, b(0) = 3, b(1) = 4, and (b(n)) is the increasing sequence of positive integers not in (a(n)). See Comments.

EXAMPLE

a(0) = 1, a(1) = 2, b(0) = 3, b(1) = 4, so that a(2) = 10.

Complement: (b(n)) = (3,4,5,6,7,8,9,11,12,14,15,16,18,19,21,...)

MATHEMATICA

a[0] = 1; a[1] = 2; b[0] = 3; b[1] = 4;
