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

G.f.: Form (Sum_{n=-inf..inf} q^((2n+1)^2))^3, then divide by q^3 and set q = x^(1/8).
a(n) = 8 * A008443(n).
