COMMENT
|
A100398 gives terms of continued fractions of harmonic numbers.
For n >= 2, a(n) = the denominator of the ratio equal to the continued fraction made by reversing the order of the terms of the continued fraction of the n-th harmonic number. (The numerator of this ratio is the numerator of the n-th harmonic number, A001008(n).) - Leroy Quet Dec 24 2006

EXAMPLE
|
H(6) = 49/20 = 2 +1/(2 +1/(4 +1/2)), so a(6) = numerator of 2 +1/(2 +1/4) = 22/9.
