  • Abstract: The OEIS (The Online Encyclopedia of Integer Sequences, oeis.org) has sometimes been called the most useful math site on the Web. If you have ever run across a number sequence in your work (1, 2, 5, 14, 42, 132, 429, 1430, ..., say) and want to find out what is known about it, you will understand why. This talk will briefly describe the OEIS and a number of interesting recent sequences, including the Fouriest transform and the Fibonachos numbers.
