Comments

Suppose that x < y. The least splitter of x and y is introduced at A227631 as the least positive integer d such that x <= c/d < y for some integer c; the number c/d is called the least splitting rational of x and y. Since s(n) -> 1/e, the sequence of least splitting rationals also approaches 1/e .

Examples

			The first 15 splitting rationals are 0/1, 1/4, 3/10, 7/22, 1/3, 18/53, 12/35, 9/26, 8/23, 7/20, 13/37, 6/17, 17/48, 11/31, 16/45.
