This question can't possibly be right. If $a_{k + 1} = a_{k - 1} - \frac 3{a_k}$, $a_0= 37$ and $a_1 = 72$, it most certainly can't be a sequence of integers. I also can't find an alternative problem statement anywhere. --JBL 11:15, 21 July 2006 (EDT)

As hard as it seems for me to believe, I am forced to agree with the above assessment. Someone please prove us wrong. El Jaimito 14:34, 2 March 2007 (EST)
