A020656 Lexicographically earliest increasing sequence of nonnegative numbers that contains no arithmetic progression of length 6. 28

%N Lexicographically earliest increasing sequence of nonnegative numbers that contains no arithmetic progression of length 6.

%H David W. Wilson, <a href="/A020656/b020656.txt">Table of n, a(n) for n = 1..10000</a>

%F a(n) = A005838(n) - 1.

%e 5 is excluded since (0,1,2,3,4,5) would be a 6-term AP.

%e 10 is excluded since (0,2,4,6,8,10) would be a 6-term AP.

%e Idem for 15 and 20.

%e 25 is not excluded, but after 25 (1,6,11,16,21,26) would be a 6-AP, and similarly all of 26 through 32 are excluded.
