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.

A260615 Irregular triangle read by rows: the n-th row is the continued fraction expansion of the sum of the reciprocals of the first n primes.

			For row 3, the sum of the first three prime reciprocals equals 1/2 + 1/3 + 1/5 = 31/30. The continued fraction expansion of 31/30 is 1 + (1/30). Because of this, the terms in row 3 are 1 and 30.
