# --description--
|
||
|
||
For any positive integer k, a finite sequence ai of fractions xi/yi is defined by:
|
||
|
||
a1 = 1/k and
|
||
|
||
ai = (xi-1+1)/(yi-1-1) reduced to lowest terms for i>1.
|
||
|
||
When ai reaches some integer n, the sequence stops. (That is, when yi=1.)
|
||
|
||
Define f(k) = n.
|
||
|
||
For example, for k = 20:
|
||
|
||
1/20 → 2/19 → 3/18 = 1/6 → 2/5 → 3/4 → 4/3 → 5/2 → 6/1 = 6
|
||
|
||
So f(20) = 6.
|
||
|
||
Also f(1) = 1, f(2) = 2, f(3) = 1 and Σf(k3) = 118937 for 1 ≤ k ≤ 100.
|
||
|
||
Find Σf(k3) for 1 ≤ k ≤ 2×106.

`euler343()` should return 269533451410884200.
|
||
|
||
```js
|
||
assert.strictEqual(euler343(), 269533451410884200);
|
||
```

# --seed--

function euler343() {

}
|

|
||
