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.

a(4) = 8 is the largest number whose factorial can be stored as a 16-bit unsigned integer.
a(5) = 12 is the largest number whose factorial can be stored as a 32-bit unsigned integer.
a(7) = 34 is the largest number whose factorial can be stored as an IEEE single-precision floating-point number (limit is just under 2^128).
a(10) = 170 is the largest number whose factorial can be stored as an IEEE double-precision floating-point number (limit is just under 2^1024).
