Message-ID: <4062@alice.UUCP> Date: Sun, 28-Jul-85 00:23:26 EDT Article-I.D.: alice.4062 Posted: Sun Jul 28 00:23:26 1985 Date-Received: Mon, 29-Jul-85 07:17:36 EDT Organization: Bell Labs, Murray Hill Lines: 10 Xref: watmath net.bizarre:39 net.math:2150 Here is a function: f(0) = 1 f(1) = 1 f(n) = f(n - f(n-1)) + f(n - f(n-2)), n > 1 It's easy to write a program to plot f(n) vs. n. The function's truly strange behavior may be easier to see if you plot f(n)-n/2 vs. n. You will want to look at the first several hundred values, at least.
