Comments

The initial terms coincide with those of A170745, although the two sequences are eventually different.

First disagreement at index 19: a(19) = 378349795937538146972655925, A170745(19) = 378349795937538146972656250. - Klaus Brockhaus, Apr 01 2011

Computed with MAGMA using commands similar to those used to compute A154638.
