That's right.

Hmmm, strange! It didn't reveal for me!
*edit: I read your answer again. You recognized the sequence, that's great!

Re: Catch Me If You Can!

Hi ZHero,

If this is a finite sequence, it's hard to imagine.
And Howardroark also solved Q1.

Re: Catch Me If You Can!

Edited. Thanks for spotting that out gAr. I've also verified that the links for the solution and the user who solved it are correct.

Yes this is a finite sequence and I'm sure it should not be very hard to imagine it. I'd have loved to give a hint but that would throw it all away in an instant. May be later. wink
