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.

Preface the series with a 1: (1, 1, 3, 6, 18, 36, ...); then the next term in the series = (1, 1, 3, 6, ...) dot (1, 2, 1, 2, ...). Example: 36 = (1, 1, 3, 6, 18) dot (1, 2, 1, 2, 1) = (1 + 2 + 3 + 12 + 18). - Gary W. Adamson, Apr 18 2009
