Re: [math-fun] Add to n its second smallest non-divider. Loop
Could please someone compute a few terms more of: < Add to n the n-th smallest number not dividing n > (this is a kind of self-generalization of the rule herunder) I've found this first few terms: S = 1,3,8,20,46,96,...

Eric Added : What about: Rule DN < Add to n the n-th smallest number not dividing n >
This gives the following sequence : 1,3,8,20,46,96,204,420,864,1752,3520,7068,14160,28360,56736,113508,227040,454176,908424,1816944,3633908,7267828, 14535662,29071328,... regards, JT et amitiés à Eric. ---------------------------------- http://www.echolalie.com/gbnums http://www.echolalie.org/wiki
This rule simply takes n to 2n + tau(n). Franklin T.
