Let be the sequence $ \left( a_n \right)_{n\ge 0} $ of positive real numbers defined by $$ a_n=1+\frac{a_{n-1}}{n} ,\quad\forall n\ge 1. $$ Calculate $ \lim_{n\to\infty } a_n ^n . $ [i]Florian Dumitrel[/i]

Let be two real numbers $ \alpha ,\beta $ and two sequences $ \left(x_n \right)_{n\ge 1} ,\left(y_n \right)_{n\ge 1} $ whose smallest periods are $ p,q, $ respectively. Prove that the sequence $ \left( \alpha x_n+\beta y_n\right)_{n\ge 1} $ is periodic if $ \text{gcd}^2 (p,q) | \text{lcm} (p,q) , $ and in this case find its smallest period.
