A189893 - OEIS

A189893

Recurrence sequence derived from the digits of the square root of 5 after its decimal point.

0, 4, 10, 65, 173, 22, 96, 15, 48, 78, 13, 201, 487, 594, 2719, 5146, 8719, 11530, 15308, 76411, 76016, 42220, 67129, 45349, 170266, 255576, 457846, 865810, 1131083, 8045547, 7669757

LINKS

Table of n, a(n) for n=0..30.

FORMULA

a(0) = 0; for i >= 0, a(i+1) = position of first occurrence of a(i) in decimal places of sqrt(5).

EXAMPLE

sqrt(5) = 2.2360679774997896964091736687...

So for example, with a(0) = 0, a(1) = 4 because the 4th digit after the decimal point is 0; a(2) = 10 because the 10th digit after the decimal point is 4 and so on.

MAPLE
