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.

The last part of Ramanujan's question 722 in the Journal of the Indian Mathematical Society (VII, 240) asked "... deduce that, if x = sqrt(5 + sqrt(5 - sqrt(5 - sqrt(5 + x)))), then x = (1/4) * (sqrt(5) - 2 + sqrt(13 - 4 * sqrt(5)) + sqrt(50 + 12 * sqrt(5) - 2 * sqrt(65 - 20 * sqrt(5))))".
