%C A015519 The same sequence may be obtained by the following process. Starting 
               a priori with the fraction 1/1, the denominators of fractions built 
               according to the rule: add top and bottom to get the new bottom, 
               add top and 8 times the bottom to get the new top. The limit of the 
               sequence of fractions is sqrt(8). - Cino Hilliard (hillcino368(AT)gmail.com),
