COMMENTS

Numbers that are not divisible by 6. [From Benoit Cloitre (benoit7848c(AT)orange.fr), Jul 11 2009]

More generally the sequence a(n,m) of numbers not divisible by some fixed integer m>=2 is given by a(n,m)=n-1+floor((n+m-2)/(m-1)). [From Benoit Cloitre (benoit7848c(AT)orange.fr), Jul 11 2009]

LINKS

FORMULA

a(n)=5+a(n-5). G.f.: x*(1+x)*(1+x+x^2)*(x^2-x+1) / ( (x^4+x^3+x^2+x+1)*(x-1)^2 ).

a(n)=n-1+floor((n+4)/5) [From Benoit Cloitre (benoit7848c(AT)orange.fr), Jul 11 2009]

MATHEMATICA

Select[Table[n, {n, 200}], Mod[#, 6]!=0&] (*From Vladimir Joseph Stephan Orlovsky, Feb 18 2011*)

PROG
