%N A000001 Fibonacci-Collatz sequence
%C A000001 Case a(1)=1;a(2)=1 gives "all ones"
sequence  1,1,1,1,1,1,1 (A000012);
similarly cases a(1)=a(2)=b give "all b's" sequences
b,b,b,b,b,b.
Do all other cases  give in general increasing
sequences (not-necessarily strictly monotonic)? 
%F A000001 a(1)=1;a(2)=2; fib=a(n-1)+a(n-2); if fib is
odd then a(n)=3*fib+1 else a(n)=fib/2
%t A000001
a[1]=1;a[2]=2;a[n_]:=a[n]=(fib=a[n-1]+a[n-2];col=If[OddQ[fib],3*fib+1,fib/2]);Table[a[n],{n,30}]
%Y A000001 A000012
%O A000001 1
