[seqfan] Re: You wouldn't believe (fwd) A005178

[David Wilson]

We could conceivably add OEIS sequence "period of {r(n) mod n}" for any 
linear recurrence r. So far, it has not been done for very many 
sequences. For instance, r = A000045 gives A001176. But other basic 
recurrences as r = A000129 and r = A001608 have not yet been done.

It would be easy to overdo this, so in the name of clutter control 
(probably a lost cause), it is best to consider only very interesting 
recurrences r. Why is r = A005178 particularly interesting?
