%N Adjusted joint rank sequence of (f(i)) and (g(j)) with f(i) before g(j) when f(i)=g(j), where f and g are the pentagonal numbers and the hexagonal numbers. Complement of A186328.

%e First, write

%e 1..5...12....22.....35...... (pentagonal)

%e 1....6....15....28.......45.. (hexagonal)

%e Then replace each number by its rank, where ties are settled by ranking the pentagonal number before the hexagonal:

%e a=(1,3,5,7,9,11,13,15,16,....)=A186328

%e b=(2,4,6,8,10,12,14,17,19,...)=A186329.

%t (See A186328.)

%Y Cf. A186328, A186330, A186331.
