Dear All,



Yes, the two sequences need corrections otherwise they are a mess!

I try to recall in my mind which was the intention…….

As far as I remember the only restriction was not to use twice the same
term.



A141033: delete from 102 to 109.

A141409: delete 293; add 223, 233, 337, 353, 373.


Please check!


Bye



Paolo Lava
