Numerators a(n) of fractions slowly converging to Pi: let a(1) = 0, b(n) = n - a(n); if (a(n) + 1) / b(n) < pi, then a(n+1) = a(n) + 1, else a(n+1)= a(n). |

COMMENT
|
a(n) + b(n) = n and as n -> +infinity, a(n) / b(n) converges to Pi. For all n, a(n) / b(n) < Pi.

FORMULA
|
a(1) = 0, b(n) = n - a(n), if (a(n) + 1) / b(n) < pi, then a(n+1) = a(n) + 1, else a(n+1) = a(n).
a(n) = floor(n*Pi/(Pi+1)). - Vladeta Jovovic (vladeta(AT)eunet.rs), Oct 04 2003

EXAMPLE
|
a(7)= 5 so b(7) = 7 - 5 = 2. a(8) = 6 because (a(7) + 1) / b(7) = 6/2 which is < Pi. So b(8) = 8 - 6 = 2. a(9) = 6 because (a(8) + 1) / b(8) = 7/2 which is not < Pi.
