Note that, 1st term of the sequence = 1 = 2^0 2nd term of the sequence = 2 = 2^1 3rd term of the sequence = 2 = 2^1 4th term of the sequence = 4 = 2^2 5th term of the sequence = 4 = 2^2 6th term of the sequence = 4 = 2^2 etc... Hence, n-th term of the sequence = greatest integral power of 2 less than n Therefore, 1035th term of the sequence = greatest integral power of 2 less than 1035 = 1024 = 2^10
