A113722 A variant of Golomb's sequence using odd numbers: a(n) is the number of times 2*n+1 occurs, starting with a(1) = 1. 3

COMMENTS

a(n) is taken to be the smallest number >= a(n-1) which is compatible with the description.

EXAMPLE

Start with 1 in row 1 and form a triangle where row n is

generated from row n-1 by the rule given in the description.

Then row 2 will have (1) 3, row 3 will have (3) 5's,

row 4 will have (5) 7's, (5) 9's and (5) 11's, etc.

The triangle begins:

1;

3;

5,5,5;

7,7,7,7,7,9,9,9,9,9,11,11,11,11,11; ...

The number of terms in each row (also row sums with offset)

is given by A113723:

[1,1,3,15,135,3845,769605,3821696361,...].

PROG

(PARI) a=[1, 3, 5, 5, 5]; for(n=3, 20, for(i=1, a[n], a=concat(a, 2*n+1))); a
