a(n) = numerator of r(n): r(1)=1, r(n+1) = [b(1,n);b(2,n),...,b(n,n)], a continued fraction of rational terms, where {b(k,n)} is the permutation of the first n terms of {r(k)} such that r(n+1) is maximized.

EXAMPLE
|
The first 5 terms of {r(k)} are: 1,1,2,5/2,13/4. The continued fraction, whose terms are the permutation of the first 5 terms of {r(k)} which leads to the largest r(6), is [13/4;1,5/2,1,2] = 401/100.
