COMMENTS
Suppose that A = {a(n)}, for n >= 0, is a sequence, and g is a real number such that a(n)/a(n-1) -> g. The limiting power-ratio for A is the limit as n->oo of a(n)/g^n, assuming that this limit exists. For A = A296251 we have g = (1 + sqrt(5))/2, the golden ratio (A001622). See A296425-A296434 for related ratio-sums and A296452-A296461 for related limiting power-ratios.
