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.

A003603 Fractal sequence obtained from Fibonacci numbers (or Wythoff array).

Length of n-th row = A000045(n); last term of n-th row = A094967(n-1); sum of n-th row = A033192(n-1). - Reinhard Zumkeller, Jan 26 2012

Examples

			In the recurrence for making new rows, we get row 5 from row 4 thus: write row 4: 1,3,2, and then place 4 right after 1, and place 5 right after 2, getting 1,4,3,2,5. - _Clark Kimberling_, Oct 29 2009

Formula

Vertical para-budding sequence: says which row of Wythoff array (starting row count at 1) contains n.
If one deletes the first occurrence of 1, 2, 3, ... the sequence is unchanged.
From Clark Kimberling, Oct 29 2009: (Start)
The fractal sequence of the Wythoff array can be constructed without reference to the Wythoff array or Fibonacci numbers. Write initial rows:
Row 1: .... 1
Row 2: .... 1
Row 3: .... 1..2
Row 4: .... 1..3..2
For n>4, to form row n+1, let k be the least positive integer not yet used; write row n, and right after the first number that is also in row n-1, place k; right after the next number that is also in row n-1, place k+1, and continue. A003603 is the concatenation of the rows. (End)
Conjecture: a(n) = abs(floor(n/phi) - floor(n*(1/phi + 1/(-phi)^(A035612(n) + 1)))) where phi = (1+sqrt(5))/2. - Alan Michael Gómez Calderón, Oct 27 2023
