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.

"Yes - there are shapes of constant width other than the circle. No - you can't drill square holes. But saying this was not just an attention catcher. As the applet on the right illustrates, you can drill holes that are almost square - drilled holes whose border includes straight line segments!" - Bogomolny. The Java applet shows it in its three versions.

A020806 preceded by a 5.
Number of degrees in the exterior angle of an equilateral heptagon. Since 1969, used in many (orbiform or Reuleaux) heptagonal coins. Zambia has a natural heptagonal coin. Brazil and Costa Rica have a coin with the natural heptagon inscribed in the coin's disk.
