%N Greedy odd Egyptian fraction representation of 1 (without repeats).
%C a(n) is the largest odd Egyptian fraction as yet unused, such that the sum of the Egyptian fractions so far does not exceed 1. The sum of a(n) is a greedy representation (greedy because each step bites off as much as possible) of 1, using only odd Egyptian fractions, all distinct.
%C Terms a(11)-a(13) were found by David Eppstein (see posting from Nov 09 1996), who says that he found them by applying EgyptOddGreedy[2/3,5] from his Egyptian fractions notebook.

%e E.g. a(8)=721 because 1/721 is the largest odd Egyptian fraction less than 1-1/a(1)-1/a(2)-1/a(3)-1/a(4)-1/a(5)-1/a(6)-1/a(7).
