Sorry, there was a nasty typo. The last sentences should have said:

Rule 190:
We have two identical sequence, A071039 and A118111.
Could one of you kindly change one of them into the binary-string version,
and add the "convert to base 10" sequence?
(The number of ON cells at state n is essentially A032766)

Best regards
Neil
