Comments

The next term, a(4) = 1.695... * 10^2287, has 2288 digits and is too large to display.
This sequence is of interest because the sequences with this recurrence and a(0) in {0, 1, 2, 3, 4} all converge to 1 and the sequence with a(0) = 5 is constant.

Examples

			a(3) = Fibonacci(a(2)) = Fibonacci(21) = 10946.
