MAPLE

L := proc(v, k, t, l) local i, t1; t1 := l; for i from v-t+1 to v do t1 := ceil(t1*i/(i-(v-k))); od: t1; end; # gives Schoenheim bound L_l(v, k, t). Present sequence is L_1(n, 3, 2, 1).

MATHEMATICA

L[v_, k_, t_, m_] := Module[{t1 = m}, Do[t1 = Ceiling[t1*i/(i - (v - k))], {i, v - t + 1, v}]; t1]; Table[L[n, 3, 2, 1], {n, 3, 100}] (* T. D. Noe, Sep 28 2011 *)
