FORMULA

a(n+1) = min { i | i^2 > a(n)^3 }

a(n+1) = Floor( Sqrt ( a(n)^3 )) + 1 - Robert G. Wilson v (rgwv(AT)rgwv.com), Mar 22 2001

EXAMPLE

a(4)=6 has cube 216. The next square is 225=15^2. So a(5)=15.

MAPLE

a := proc(n) option remember: if n=1 then RETURN(1) fi: if n=2 then RETURN(2) fi: ceil(a(n-1)^((3.)/(3-1))): end: Digits := 200: for n from 1 to 20 do printf(`%a, `, a(n)) od:

MATHEMATICA

f[n_Integer] := Floor[ N[ Sqrt[n^3] ] ] + 1; NestList[f, 1, 15]
