%N Decimal expansion of ratio-sum for A293358; see Comments.
%C 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 ratio-sum for A is |a(1)/a(0) - g| + |a(2)/a(1) - g| + ..., assuming that this series converges. For A = A293358, we have g = (1 + sqrt(5))/2, the golden ratio (A001622). See the guide at A296469 for related sequences.
%e ratio-sum = 3.535917393515259350716802232248550673355...
%t a[0] = 1; a[1] = 3; b[0] = 2; b[1 ] = 4;
%t a[n_] := a[n] = a[n - 1] + a[n - 2] + b[n - 1];
%t j = 1; While[j < 13, k = a[j] - j - 1;
%t While[k < a[j + 1] - j + 1, b[k] = j + k + 2; k++]; j++];
%t Table[a[n], {n, 0, k}]; (* A293358 *)
