%N Nested floor product of n and fractions (k+1)/k for all k>0 (mod 3), divided by 3.

%H Paul D. Hanna, <a href="/A073360/b073360.txt">Table of n, a(n) for n = 1..300</a>

%F a(n)=(1/3)[...[[[[n(2/1)](3/2)](5/4)](6/5)]...(k+1)/k]..., k>0 (mod 3), where [x] = floor of x; this infinite nested floor product will eventually level-off at a(n).

%e a(2) = 4 since (1/3)[[[[[[2(2/1)](3/2)](5/4)](6/5)](8/7)](9/8)](11/10)](12/11)]

%e = (1/3)[[[[[4(3/2)](5/4)](6/5)](8/7)](9/8)](11/10)](12/11)]

%e = (1/3)[[[[6(5/4)](6/5)](8/7)](9/8)](11/10)](12/11)]

%e = (1/3)[[[[7(6/5)](8/7)](9/8)](11/10)](12/11)]

%e = (1/3)[[[[8(8/7)](9/8)](11/10)](12/11)]

%e = (1/3)[[[[9(9/8)](11/10)](12/11)]

%e = (1/3)[[[[10(11/10)](12/11)]

%e = 4.

%e Note that the denominators consist of positive integers not == 0 mod 3.

%Y Cf. A073359.
