James – here is your equation for your number sequence…

Let x equal the last number in the sequence


Let (the function of) F(x-1) equal the number right before the last number in the sequence


let (the function of) F(x-2) qual the number before the number right before the last


Let a = ((x)-(F(x-1)))


Let b = ((F(x-1)))-((F(x-2))))


Let c = the position of x in the sequence


Let d and e be a place holder for calculations


Let f = the next number in the sequence



So the equation is:



(a-b)+c=d


(a-b)+d=e


x+e=f



I’m sure there is a much more elegant way to write this out, but when I laid down in bed last night it popped into my head right before I fell asleep, so I figured i’d post it as a blog – so you could see it once you added me as a friend…
