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.

A386541 Lander and Parkin's 1966 counterexample to Euler's sum of powers conjecture: integers a, b, c, d and e, all > 1, such that a^k + b^k + c^k + d^k = e^k, with k = 5.

%C A386541 This is the first counterexample (found in 1966) to Euler's sum of powers conjecture. The conjecture, stated in 1769, claims that at least k k-th powers are needed to sum to a k-th power, for k >= 2. See the Wikipedia article for more information.
