The OEIS is the
best resource for integer sequences on the internet and is maintained and
presided over by Neil Sloane with the assistance of an editorial panel of
around 75 mathematicians and computer programmers. It currently contains around
200000 sequences, and those listed below are the ones that I have commented on:
