COMMENTS

Suppose that x < y. The least splitter of x and y is introduced at A227631 as the least positive integer d such that x <= c/d < y for some integer c; the number c/d is called the least splitting rational of x and y.

EXAMPLE
|
The splitting rationals of consecutive numbers log(1), log(2), ... are 0, 1, 4/3, 3/2, 5/3, 9/5, 2, 13/6, 9/4, 7/3, 12/5, 5/2, 13/5; the denominators form A227634, and the numerators, A227684. Chain:
log(1) <= 0 < log(2) < 1 < log(3) < 4/3 < log(4) < 3/2 < log(5) < 5/3 < ...
