First differences of A002387. - Vladeta Jovovic (vladeta(AT)Eunet.yu), Jul 30 2004

EXAMPLE

The ceilings of the first several partial sums of the reciprocal of the positive integers are 1 2 2 3 3 3 3 3 3 3 4 4 and the series is monotonically increasing, so a(0) = 0 (there being no zero), a(1) = 1 (there being but one 1) and a(3) = 7 (there being seven 3s).

MATHEMATICA

fh[0] = 0; fh[1] = 1; fh[k_] := Module[{tmp}, If[ Floor[tmp = Log[k + 1/2] + EulerGamma] == Floor[tmp + 1/(24k^2)], Floor[tmp], UNKNOWN]]; a[0] = 1; a[1] = 2; a[n_] := Module[{val}, val = Round[Exp[n - EulerGamma]]; If[fh[val] == n && fh[val - 1] == n - 1, val, UNKNOWN]]; Table[ a[n + 1] - a[n], {n, 0, 27}] (from Robert G.
