COMMENTS

f(n)-> Sqrt[2n], a slowly converging sequence.

The next term in the sequence (a(14)) has 120 digits.  [From Harvey P. Dale, Nov 29 2011]

EXAMPLE

f(3)=2/f(2)+1/f(1)=2/2+1/1=2/1, therefore in the sequence, 3rd term is 2.

MATHEMATICA

Numerator[RecurrenceTable[{a[1]==1, a[2]==2, a[n]==(n-1)/a[n-1]+(n-2)/ a[n-2]}, a, {n, 13}]] (* From Harvey P. Dale, Nov 29 2011 *)
