COMMENTS
| Harmonious sequence, built on the number 9.10977...
a(n+1)/a(n) converges to (9+sqrt(85))/2 = 9.10977... a(0)/a(1)=2/9; a(1)/a(2)=9/83; a(2)/a(3)=83/756; a(3)/a(4)=756/6887; ... etc. Lim a(n)/a(n+1) as n approaches infinity = 0.1097722... = 2/(9+sqrt(85)) = (sqrt(85)-9)/2.

FORMULA
| G.f.: (2-9*x)/(1-9*x-x^2). [From Philippe DELEHAM (kolotoko(AT)wanadoo.fr), Nov 02 2008]
Contribution from Johannes W. Meijer (meijgia(AT)hotmail.com), Jun 12 2010: (Start)
a(2n+1) = 9*A097840(n), a(2n) = A099373(n).
a(3n+1) = A041150(5n), a(3n+2) = A041150(5n+3), a(3n+3) = 2*A041150(5n+4).
Limit(a(n+k)/a(k), k=infinity) = (A087798(n) + A099371(n)*sqrt(85))/2.
Limit(A087798(n)/A099371(n), n=infinity) = sqrt(85).

EXAMPLE
| a(4) = 6887 = 9a(3) + a(2) = 9*756 + 83 = [(9+sqrt(85))/2]^4 + [(9-sqrt(85))/2]^4 = 6886.9998547 + 0.0001452 = 6887.
