Year-end appeal: Please make a donation to the OEIS Foundation to support ongoing development and maintenance of the OEIS. We are now in our 61st year, we have over 378,000 sequences, and we’ve reached 11,000 citations (which often say “discovered thanks to the OEIS”).

A108930

COMMENTS
"Version: basek" in the name field is a reference to the floretion k'. It means that in order to calculate a(n), the rule given for A108618: "a(n) is given by twice the coefficient of e (the unit) in y from step 4 inside the n-th loop." should be replaced by "a(n) is given by 4 times the coefficient of k' in y from step 4 inside the n-th loop." This sequence appears to be unbounded. Moreover, (a(n)) produces a "spiral" when plotted against sequences from the same batch (i.e. against versions: tes, ves etc.). Ray-traced plots similar to the one given in the link can be formed using this sequence (for example). (a(n)) appears to become more "predictable" with increasing n. For n in the range from 987 to 1000 we have: a(987) = -59, a(988) = 112, a(989) = -52, a(990) = -55, a(991) = 108, a(992) = -51, a(993) = -53, a(994) = 109, a(995) = -55, a(996) = -51, a(997) = 107, a(998) = -54, a(999) = -50, a(1000) = 109
