FORMULA
|
G.f.: ( G(0) - 1 )/(1-x) where G(k) = 1 + (1-x)/(1-x*(k+2))/(1-x/(x+(1-x)/G(k+1) )); (recursively defined continued fraction). - Sergei N. Gladkovskii, Jan 21 2013
G.f.: 1/(x^3*(1-x)*G(0)) - 1/(1-x)/x^3 where G(k) = 1 - x/(x - 1/(1 + 1/(x*k-1)/G(k+1) )); (recursively defined continued fraction). - Sergei N. Gladkovskii, Feb 13 2013
