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.

A173497 a(n) = a(n-1) + a(n-2) - floor(a(n-2)/2), starting 2,1.
