If you want to see the first 500 terms of the sequences C01j(N) for j from 1 to 10,
both in exact rational arithmetic, and in floating-point,
If you want to see the first 700 terms of the sequence C121(N)
If you want to conduct your own computer experiments with our data, we have
put all the 10 sequences C01j(N) for 1 ≤ j ≤ 10, for
1 ≤ N ≤ 800, into one file, called
An even larger list then above,
put all the 10 sequences C01j(N) for 1 ≤ j ≤ 10, for
1 ≤ N ≤ 850, into one file, called
If you want even more data, but in floating-point, we
put all the 40 sequences C01j(N) for 1 ≤ j ≤ 40, for
1 ≤ N ≤ 1000, into one file, called
If you want to see
the 21 sequences C01(-j)(N) for j from 0 to 20 and
1 ≤ N ≤ 500
If you want to see conjectured (appx.) asymptotic expressions for C01l(N)
for l between 1 and 15,
If you want to see the values, in floating-point, of Chkl(N) for 0 < h < k < 10 , k ≥ 3, with gcd(h,k)=1 and
for l between 1 and 10, and N between 1 and 400
If you want to see the first 1500 terms of the sequence C011(N)*(2*N)!,

If you want to see the first 2000 terms of the sequence C011(N)*(2*N)!,
If you want to see conjectured (appx.) asymptotic expressions for C011(N)
(using 1500 terms rather than 900 as in oHANS10)

The first-named author's "academic grandfather", Hans Rademacher,
was a great number theorist, but even great mathematicians sometimes make false conjectures. In this
article we prove (empirically) that a conjecture made by Rademacher in his posthumously published classic
"Topics in Number Theory" is (very!) false as stated, but if you replace "infinity" by some good-old finite
numbers it may be resurrected.

HANSC01,
in Maple readable format. We named that sequence C01r. For example,
C017(597) could be gotten (once you uploaded that file),
by typing
C01r[7][597];
HANSC01a,
in Maple readable format. We also named that sequence C01r. For example,
C017(597) could be gotten (once you uploaded that file),
by typing
C01r[7][597];
HANSC01f,
in Maple readable format. We named that sequence C01f. For example,
the floating-point approximation of
C017(999) could be gotten gotten (once you uploaded that file),
by typing
C01f[7][999];
the input
yields
the output ,
in Maple readable format. We named that sequence C01Minus.
To get C01(-j)(N), simply type, C01Minus[j+1][N];
For example,
C01(-7)(456) could be gotten (once you uploaded that file),
by typing
C01Minus[8][456];
