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.

In general, for k>1, if e.g.f. satisfies A'(x) = 1 + A(x)^k, with A(0)=1, then a(n) ~ n! * d^(n + 1/(k-1)) / ((k-1)^(1/(k-1)) * Gamma(1/(k-1)) * n^(1-1/(k-1))), where d = 1 / Sum_{j>=1} (-1)^(j+1)/(k*j-1).

Examples

			A(x) = 1 + 2*x + 10*x^2/2! + 130*x^3/3! + 2330*x^4/4! + 54770*x^5/5! + ...
A'(x) = 2 + 10*x + 65*x^2 + 1165*x^3/3 + 27385*x^4/12 + 159169*x^5/12 + ...
1 + A(x)^5 = 2 + 10*x + 65*x^2 + 1165*x^3/3 + 27385*x^4/12 + 159169*x^5/12 + ...
