FORMULA

Let c(0)=3, c(n+1) = c(n)^3-3*c(n) [A001999]; then this sequence is c(0)-1, c(0)+1, c(1)-1, c(1)+1, c(2)-1, c(2)+1, ......

a(n) = 2*F(2*3^floor(n/2)+1)-F(2*3^floor(n/2))-(-1)^n where F(k) denotes the k-th Fibonacci number A000045(k)

Let u(0)=(1+sqrt(5))/2 and u(n+1)=u(n)/frac(u(n)) where frac(x) is the fractional part of x, then a(n)=floor(u(n)). - Benoit Cloitre (benoit7848c(AT)orange.fr), Mar 09 2004

PROGRAM

(PARI) r=(1+sqrt(5))/2; for(n=1, 10, r=r/(r-floor(r)); print1(floor(r), ", "))
