<DIV>I remember looking at some of those, and thinking that what was there was kind of ugly, but I couldn't come up with anything better.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>I don't see any problem with zeros in the denominator of fraction sequences in cases like these.</DIV>

<DIV class=AOLPlainTextBody id=AOLMsgPart_0_23af7b87-6374-457d-b303-6fa582109367>Speaking of offsets and such: <BR>I agree that there are a lot that ought to be corrected, and some that <BR>are used inconsistently within the comments/formulas for the seq. So <BR>a lot of other cleaning up (of those formulas/comments) might be <BR>necessary when we start being more careful about offsets. <BR> <BR>I had a very tough time deciding what to do with some "farey fraction" <BR>sequences: <BR>They start 0/1, 1/0, ... <BR> <BR>And sometimes the ... part was already in the OEIS as numerators or <BR>denominators or both. <BR> <BR>I had to decide whether to stick the 0,1 or 1,0 in front and make a <BR>new seq cross-ref to the existing one, or just to comment on the <BR>existing seq about the Farey fraction connection. <BR> <BR>There's also the issue about whether it's OK to have a "frac" sequence <B!
R>of denominators that includes zero! <BR> <BR>Any opinions on this one? (For the record, in a couple of the "most <BR>important" cases, relating to e and pi and the golden ratio and maybe <BR>sqrt(2), I made new seq with the 0 and 1 in front, but for any others <BR>I come across I will just stick in a comment about the Farey <BR>connection.) <BR> <BR>--Joshua Zucker <BR> <BR></DIV><!-- end of AOLMsgPart_0_23af7b87-6374-457d-b303-6fa582109367 --></DIV></DIV>
