| 14

| 251.2 | | RAINBO::GRANT | | Fri Apr 05 1985 19:09 | 11 |
| Proof is simple:
Lemma 1: All puzzles in this notes file since February are of two types:
1. They are related to permutations of (1...N), or
2. The answer is 14.
Since the sequence doesn't seem to be related to permutations,
the answer must be 14.
QED.

| Well, I must admit I find no flaw in your proof.
Hence I must conclude the map is wrong, since it doesn't say 14 is the next
number.

Hint:
As is often good advice when lost, look on the ___.

| 4 (another square). Gulp!

| 251.6 | | SPRITE::OSMAN | | Fri Apr 12 1985 16:56 | 2 |
| I'm not quite sure whether you've caught on or not. Just to assure me,
if you think 4 comes next, what's after that ?
|
| 251.7 | | LATOUR::JMUNZER | | Sat Apr 13 1985 13:01 | 1 |
| 3 (another square root)
|
| 251.8 | | SPRITE::OSMAN | | Tue Apr 16 1985 11:28 | 8 |
| Yes, folks I believe this person has caught on ! Congratulations.
My idea for what comes after 225 is indeed 3. However, as pointed out,
4 can be easily argued for insertion. I didn't quite agree with 4,
merely because it shares an exit with 225.

| Three?! All the other numbers in 251.0 take the form of either n^2 or n(n+1).

| BIG hint (for those that haven't yet figured out that MAP in this problem
refers to one of Boston):
Drive northward on rte. 128 !
