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.

A357255 Triangular array: row n gives the recurrence coefficients for the sequence (c(k) = number of subsets of {1,2,...,n} that have at least k-1 elements) for k >= 1.
