Comments

Numerators of fractions in partial sums of sum_{n=0...infinity} 101^n/1000^(n+1)converging to fraction 1/899 or sum_{n=0...infinity} 100^n/999^(n+1) whose alternating sum converges to fraction 1/1099 [= alternating sum_99^n/1000^(n+1)].

Formula

From Colin Barker, Oct 02 2015: (Start)

a(n) = 1101*a(n-1) - 101000*a(n-2) for n>2.

G.f.: x / ((101*x-1)*(1000*x-1)).

(End)
