Year-end appeal: Please make a donation to the OEIS Foundation to support ongoing development and maintenance of the OEIS. We are now in our 61st year, we have over 378,000 sequences, and we’ve reached 11,000 citations (which often say “discovered thanks to the OEIS”).

A080158
Greedy frac multiples of Catalan's constant, G: a(1)=1, sum(n>0,frac(a(n)*x))=1 at x=G, where "frac(y)" denotes the fractional part of y.

COMMENTS
For definition of how the "Greedy Frac" sequence is defined, see other sequences in index.
EXAMPLE
a(3) = 107 since frac(1x) + frac(11x) + frac(107x) < 1, while frac(1x) + frac(11x) + frac(k*x) > 1 for all k>11 and k<107.
MAPLE
Digits := 1000: a := []: s := 0: x := evalf(Catalan): for n from 1 to 5000000 do: temp := evalf(s+frac(n*x)): if (temp<1.0) then a := [op(a), n]: print(n): s := s+evalf(frac(n*x)): fi: od: a;
