%N Haiku numbers.

%C These numbers are haiku when written in English (including the 'and' between the hundreds and tens or units). A haiku is a three-line poem with 5 syllables in the first line, seven in the second and five in the third.

%C Apparently the actual criterion is that there are 17 syllables, as words can be broken across lines: e.g.,

%C One hundred and sev-

%C en thousand one hundred and

%C seventy-seven. - _Robert Israel_, Nov 11 2018

%H Robert Israel, <a href="/A321235/b321235.txt">Table of n, a(n) for n = 1..10000</a>

%e 77777 is a haiku:

%e Seventy-seven

%e thousand, seven hundred and

%e seventy-seven.

%p filter:= proc(n) uses StringTools; local t;

%p t:= convert(n,english,'And');

%p t:= subs("ninety"="eighty",Split(t,"- "));

%p # Maple thinks "ninety" has 3 syllables

%p convert(map(SyllableLength,t),`+`)=17

%p end proc:

%p select(filter, [$1..110000]); # _Robert Israel_, Nov 11 2018
