Starting a priori with the fraction 1/1, the numerators of fractions built according to the rule: add top and bottom to get the new bottom, add top and 5 times the bottom to get the new top. The limit of the sequence of fractions is sqrt(5). - Cino Hilliard (hillcino368(AT)gmail.com), Sep 25 2005 %D A063727 A. T. Benjamin and J. J.
