[seqfan] Measuring OEIS Sequences ?

[Brad Klee]

Hi Seqfans,

Some of the OEIS sequences are measureable in nature, a premiere example is
the pair ( A038534 , A038533 ), which together describe the energy
dependence of a plane pendulum's period.

For these types of sequences, we could link to measurement repositories,
where available. See for example:

https://github.com/bradklee/DataAnalysis/tree/master/PlanePendulum
>>
https://github.com/bradklee/DataAnalysis/blob/master/PlanePendulum/ExamplePlot.png
>>https://github.com/bradklee/DataAnalysis/blob/master/PlanePendulum/fit.log

Already in v0.1, the fit log gives the following estimates for extracted
parameters

(a(1),a(2),a(3) ) = ( 0.2448 +/- 0.0045 , 0.1635 +/- 0.0113 , 0.0934 +/-
0.0152 )

to  compare with theoretical frac. values ( decimals truncated )

(a(1),a(2),a(3) ) = ( 1/4, 9/64, 25/256 ) ~ (0.2500 , 0.1406 , 0.0976)

All measurements are within 3 sigma, and the percent difference is
approximately 2%, 16%, 4% for linear, quadratic, cubic coefficients
respectively.

So a few questions:
~ Should physically measureable sequences have there own tag / wiki topic ?
~ Should we link to data repositories if relevant / available ?
~ If yes, should we define accuracy / precision requirements ?

For the record: I think Y / Y / Y . Let's see if anyone has an argument for
N / N / * .
