a(n)=the smallest natural number which, expressed in the form d*q+r for all d ranging from 1 to n, q>=r. In other words, when a(n) is divided by the numbers from 1 to n, the remainder is never more than the quotient. |

COMMENT
|
If a prospective term is at least d(d-1) for a certain value of d, all d less than or equal to that value are certain to be satisfied. For k>5, it seems a(2k-1)=a(2k)=2k(k-1).

|
EXAMPLE
|
a(7)=21 because division by d=1 to 7 gives 21 r0, 10 r1, 7 r0, 5 r1, 4 r1, 3 r3, and 3 r0, respectively.
