Re: Bafflers?
I forgot the problem and the solution, solved it again in a different way and now cannot remember that!
In mathematics, you don't understand things. You just get used to them.
Probability is the most important concept in modern science, especially as nobody has the slightest notion what it means.
90% of mathematicians do not understand 90% of currently published mathematics.

Re: Bafflers?
That's bad!
I'll take a note of the solution, very good recurrence.

Hi;
Thanks for looking at the problem. I am writing down the solution also.

Hi bobbym
Can you help with getting the solution. Even these are hard for me.
The limit operator is just an excuse for doing something you know you can't.

Back to the problem.I just done the recursion, stick in 10 and I'm done?

The other would be to find all the elements up to the tenth one from the formula.But the other one is the fun way.
