work yet?]
Form the triangle where a(n,m) is the (ceiling(n/m))th integer from among
those positive integers not occurring earlier in the (concatenated)
sequence.
So we have the triangle beginning:
1
3,2
6,5,4
10,8,9,7
15,13,12,14,11
21,18,17,19,20,16
28,25,24,23,26,27,22
Now, this may be an easily answered question, but, is this sequence (the
triangle read by rows: 1,3,2,6,5,4,10,8,9,7,...) its own inverse
permutation of the positive integers?
thanks,
