Sloane accepts more terms, sometimes. I don't know what he does with things like lists of prime decades that are somewhat interesting, but go on forever. Is there an "unpublished sequences" database akin to the old UMT (unpublished math tables)? We need a review or summary of some kind, to make this work easier to find. The sequence database has an index, but I want something with more text and more pointers. It would need to be organized so that any specific collection of computed data is easy to find. Maybe some kind of multiple keyword lookup.

(At least I can contribute a bunch more terms, in case anyone's interested.) -------------------------- Note: The log_N(k) figure (k is largest registered N-tuple before the first one that's totally composite) seems it may be converging to something around e = 2.718... which seems too weird to be true. As with your 2^N +-3 prime observation, I'll wait till I see a lot more terms, but there's some kind of gestalt definitely emerging. --Dan _______________________________________________ math-fun mailing list math-fun@mailman.xmission.com http://mailman.xmission.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/math-fun
