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.

A130318 Integer values of k!!/S(k), where S(k) is the sum of all odd numbers less than or equal to k, if k is odd, or the sum of all even numbers less than or equal to k, if k is even.

For n >= 8, a(n) ends with 0 or 5.

Examples

			6 --> 6!! = 48; 6 + 4 + 2 = 12; 48/12 = 4.
17 --> 17!! = 34459425; 17 + 15 + 13 + 11 + 9 + 7 + 5 + 3 + 1 = 81; 34459425/81 = 425425.
