[seqfan] Re: Fwd: Formula for A025672

[Sean A. Irvine]

Yes, it is wrong.  The first disagreement is at term 110; and it gets
progressively worse from there.

Here are the first few disagreements:

110 mirceau=0 truth=10
111 mirceau=10 truth=0
121 mirceau=0 truth=10
122 mirceau=10 truth=0
131 mirceau=1 truth=11
132 mirceau=0 truth=1
133 mirceau=11 truth=10
134 mirceau=10 truth=0
143 mirceau=1 truth=11
144 mirceau=0 truth=1
145 mirceau=11 truth=10
146 mirceau=10 truth=0
