%F A006040 Nearest integer to BesselI(0, 2)*n!*n!, n>2.
%F A006040 a(n) = n!^2*Sum_{k=0..n} 1/k!^2. BesselI(0, 2*sqrt(x))/(1-x) = Sum_{n>
               =0} a(n)*x^n/n!^2. - Vladeta Jovovic (vladeta(AT)eunet.rs), Aug 30

%F A006040 Recurrence: a(1) = 1, a(2) = 2, a(n+1) = (n^2+1)*a(n) - (n-1)^2*a(n-1), 
               n >= 2. The sequence b(n) := (n-1)!^2 satisfies the same recurrence 
               with the initial conditions b(1) = 1, b(2) = 1. It follows that a(n) 
               = n!^2*(1 + 1/(1 - 1/(5 - 4/(10 - ...-(n-1)^2/(n^2+1))))). Hence 
               BesselI(0,2) := sum {k = 0..inf} 1/k!^2 = 1 + 1/(1 - 1/(5 - 4/(10 
               - ...-(n-1)^2/(n^2+1 - ...)))). Cf. A073701. - Peter Bala (pbala(AT)toucansurf.com),
