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.

A261305 a(n+1) = abs(a(n) - gcd(a(n), 5*n+4)), u(1) = 1.

It is conjectured that a(n) = 0 implies that 5n+4 = a(n+1) is prime for n > 2, cf. A186256. (This is the sequence {u(n)} mentioned there.)

Examples

			a(2) = a(1) - gcd(a(1),5+4) = 1 - 1 = 0.
a(3) = |a(2) - gcd(a(2),5*2+4)| = 14.
a(19) = 88, thus a(20) = 88 - gcd(88, 5*19+4) = 88 - 11 = 77.
