I appreciate any tips on how to code this in Mathematica.
I have two lists, each with 99 elements; A and B. Real numbers.
I want to form a list, C, whose elements are functions (F[]) of A and B, and also previous elements of C itself.

C ={F[A1/B1], F[A2/(B2-A1/C1)], F[A3/(B3-A1/C1-A2/C2)],..F[A99/(B99-A1/C1...-A98/C98.)}

...where the integers after A,B, and C, are element indices.
Thanks for any suggestions.
HG
