How can I be a mathmatition when I can't even spell it! By the way, I hate monkeys! Glad your a chimp in the power of three--1(chimp3) + 1(chimp3) = .06 chimps(I will get arguments) However, I never met an orangutan I didn't like!(November 24, 2017 at 4:26 pm)Haipule Wrote: I'm no mathamatision. But, I like to entertain myself with numbers. My latest toy is a sequence of odd numbers.You are not a spellamatision either.
If I have one square tile and I want to increase it's size, keeping it square with the same size tiles, I would have to add 3 tiles.
Then I would then have 4 tiles. If I wanted to increase it's size from there, I would have to add 5 tiles for a total of 9 tiles at level 3. Increasing in size then is a sequence: 1 3 5 7 9 11 13... The 12th level is 144 tiles: 10th level = 100 tiles + 21 tiles = 121 tiles(11th level) + 23 tiles = 144.
Each level of tiles, 1 - 12..., is the square root of the total number of tiles at each level. I think it's cool that this sequence at the 12th level is the same number as the 12th level of the Fibonacci sequence.
Anyway, I thought is was fun. What does it mean? I have no idea.
