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.

Comments

a(n) = Product_{i=1..n} F(2*i) is asymptotic to C2*phi^(n*(n+1))/sqrt(5)^n where phi = (1+sqrt(5))/2 and F(n) = A000045(n), see A194157. The decimal expansion of the constant C2 is given above.
