cp's OEIS Frontend

This is a front-end for the Online Encyclopedia of Integer Sequences, made by Christian Perfect. The idea is to provide OEIS entries in non-ancient HTML, and then to think about how they're presented visually. The source code is on GitHub.

Formula

Equals log_10(e) = 1/log(10) = 1/A002392. - Eric Desbiaux, Jun 27 2009
Conjecture by Eric Weisstein: Equals lim_{n->oo} b(n)/10^(n-1), for b=A114467 or b=A114468 (i.e., is the limit of the decimal expansion of the number of decimal digits in both the numerator and denominator of the (10^n)th harmonic number). More generally, log_k(e) seems to equal lim_{n->oo} floor(log_k(b(k^n)))/k^(n-1), for b=A001008 or b=A002805 and k >= 2. - Natalia L. Skirrow, Feb 12 2023
