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 rays are evenly spaced around each point. The first ray of one point goes opposite to the direction to the other point. Should a ray hit the other point it terminates there, that is, it is converted to a line segment.
To produce the illustrations below, all pairwise intersections between the rays is calculated and the maximum distance to the center, incremented by 20%, is taken as radius of a circle. Then all intersections between the rays and the circle defines a polygon which is used as limit.

Examples

			For n=1:    <-----x     x----->   so a(1)=1.
For n=2:    <-----x<--->x----->   so a(2)=2.

The rays are evenly spaced around each point. The first ray from each point goes opposite to the direction to the center of the circle. Should a ray hit another point it is terminated there.
See A338122 for illustrations.

Examples

			For n=1 there are three rays that do not intersect, so a(1)=3.

The rays are evenly spaced around each point. The first ray of one point goes in the opposite direction of the other point. Should a ray hit the other point, it terminates there, i.e., it is converted to a line segment.
See A338041 for illustrations.

Examples

			For n=1:    <-----x     x----->   so a(1)=2.
