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.

To construct a(n), consider the six consecutive terms A101608(6*n-5) through A101608(6*n) as a single string (e.g., for n=1 we have 121323, for n=2 we have 123132). Only five different strings occur, corresponding to the five letter alphabet used here. Apply the mapping 121323 -> 1, 123132 -> 2, 213123 -> 3, 123123 -> 4, 213132 -> 5. - Sean A.
