Comments

The initial terms coincide with those of A170740, although the two sequences are eventually different.

First disagreement at index 24: a(24) = 17616076799999999999999999999790, A170740(24) = 17616076800000000000000000000000. - Klaus Brockhaus, Apr 20 2011

Computed with Magma using commands similar to those used to compute A154638.
