%e The 5th term 60, is divisible by 1,2,3,4, and 5.

%e The 6th term 120, greater than 60, is divisible by 1,2,3,4,5, and 6.

%e The 10th term 5040, greater than 2520, is divisible by 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9, and 10.

%o (Python)

%o x = [1] # To count the number in the sequence

%o y = [1] # To record the sequence itself

%o N = 20 # The number of terms to calculate

%o while len(x) < N:

%o x.append(x[-1] + 1)

%o # The next number in the sequence will be divisible by x[-1] so start

%o # looking at z which is the largest number divisible by x[-1] so far

%o z = y[-1]//x[-1] * x[-1] + x[-1]

%o # Now start counting up by x[-1] and check if the number is divisible by

%o # every integer less than x[-1]

%o while any([z%i != 0 for i in x]):

%o z += x[-1]

%o y.append(z)

%o print("{}\t {}\t".format(len(x),z))

%Y Would be same as A003418 without the "increasing" condition.

%K nonn

%O 1,2
