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.

%C A309237 Smallest m such that A065048(m-1) = c(m,n).
%C A309237 For k in the interval [a(n),a(n+1)-1], A065048(k-1) = c(k,n).
%C A309237 Ratio a(n+1)/a(n) seems to decrease and tend to exp(1) as n grows.
%e A309237 n=2 is a value for index k delivering the maximum value of c(m,k) for each fixed m in the interval [a(2),a(3)-1] = [2,7]. Then, for m in [a(3),a(4)-1] = [8,24], the maximum is given by c(m,3), and so on.
