COMMENTS

a(5) is greater than 10^23. A naive probabilistic argument suggests that each time the search limit is increased by two orders of magnitude, the chance of finding a(5) is about 1%. The probabilistic argument also suggests that this sequence grows about as fast as the polypowers with base exp(1/2). - David Wasserman (wasserma(AT)spawar.navy.mil), Apr 17 2003.
