We are going to play a little game.. if you crack the algorithm

>>7755792
There is literally an infinity of algorithms that can do that

>>7755794
Well show me the best one.

>>7755801
Define best.

>>7755792
210323734155= 24141820291911-(24141820291911-210323734155)
Give me my reward fagget.

>>7755801
just add 210323734155-24141820291911 to the input number

You've won the crying cat reward.

ackshually, there is only ever one "mathematically correct" way to do anything, except for NP-problems, which are well known exceptions, just waiting to be solved. how exciting is that?

>>7755801
here it is in pseudocode.
[code]
function the_algorithm (x : Integer)
return 210323734155
[/code]

You have no idea what you're talking about.

>>7755820
this is the kind of thing you can say to people who dont know what those words mean and convince them, but to the people who actually work with those concepts you just sound like an idiot

>>7755792
mysterybox(int x) {
x = 210323734155;
}

>>7755820
Okay then, what is the one "mathematically correct" way to complete this sequence?

1, 2, 4, 7, 13, 21, ??

Your post is arbitrary as fuck OP. You might as well ask us to find how I got 2 from 1 or inject us with a cancer.

>>7755831
It doesn't get more efficient than this. We have a winner.

>>7757140
Looking it up on OEIS, of course. http://oeis.org/A018150

>>7755820
>what are groups

Nice!

>>7757560
Which gives multiple results. How did you decide which one was the one "mathematically correct" answer?

>>7758171
Looking it up on Wolfram Alpha, of course. http://www.wolframalpha.com/input/?i=1%2C+2%2C+4%2C+7%2C+13%2C+21
