%C A243855 Decree that (row 1) = (1).  For n >= 2, row n consists of numbers in decreasing order generated as follows:  x+1 for each x in row n-1 together with 4/x for each x in row n-1, and duplicates are rejected as they occur.  Every positive rational number occurs exactly once in the resulting array.
