[GasX]

no

 

[her209]

42

 

[Whoozyerdaddy]

I don't care

 

[blustori]

shens

 

[Ricemarine]

Is this about how many spiders you've killed?

 

[HamburgerBoy]

Eleventy billion.

 

[BrianH1]

3.14

 

[chuckywang]

The last number you have should be: 114213

Therefore, the next number is 31121314. What do I win?

 

[JetBlack69]

31121314

:thumbsup:

I just realized the answer is googleable =/

Good job nonetheless, I'll assume you used your brains

 

[shamrock1313]

How does this work? What does it go by?

Yep, no google for me.

EDIT: After reading KLin's response, it's awesome how 21322314 has the recursive property of this sequence. It's something that should be in Godel, Escher, Bach: An Eternal Golden Braid. I wonder how if this sequence converges when you take any integer as the first number.

Starting with any number 1-4 you end up with that same sequence

I've yet to try 5-9 or 0 though..let's see...

 

[Rubycon]

It has to be evenly divisible by eight, the number of legs a spider has.

Nice..

 

[Syringer]

Starting at 0 it converges to 1031223314..too lazy to try 5-9 though.

C++ program, FTW!!

Maybe it converges to the same thing except that the 2's are replaced by 5's? I dunno, just a guess.
