FORMULA
|
The quotient of two successive terms of this sequence has exp(1) for limit. - Sébastien Dumortier, Jun 29 2005
a(n) = exp(n - gamma + o(1)). - Charles R Greathouse IV, Mar 10 2009
a(n) = A002387(n) for n>1. - Robert G. Wilson v, Jun 18 2015

|
|
EXAMPLE
|
a(2)=4 because 1/1 + 1/2 + 1/3 + 1/4 > 2.
