%C A242360 Decree that row 1 is (1) and row 2 is (2).  For n >=3, row n consists of numbers in decreasing order generated as follows:  x+1 for each x in row n-1 together with 1/(1+x) for each x in row n-2.  It is easy to prove that row n consists of F(n) numbers, where F = A000045 (the Fibonacci numbers), and that every positive rational number occurs exactly once.
