BTW, it's not normal to be able to generate the second term in a number series only from the first.
No, of course not. The first and a rule or recursive relationship. Which you are supposed to figure out. Hence the fun.

recursion

recursion (rî-kûr´zhen) noun
Mathematics.
1. An expression, such as a polynomial, each term of which is determined by application of a formula to preceding terms.
2. A formula that generates the successive terms of a recursion.

Looks like we're right back to my polynomial equation!

O, dear chap, I wouldn't use the term if I didn't know what it meant.

Here's another clue. All the numbers in the series are the same.

(Jeez, I might as well spell it out).

You speak in riddles.... I thought this was a math puzzle.

The price of fish is proportional to the square of the difference between the price of fuel minus the concentration of fish in the ocean.

When you post, don't mix up the pictures with another one of a horse.

Okay, so you start with 16, then you generate the other numbers simply by expressing the same value in other bases.... such as a base10, hexadecimal, binary etc?
