[seqfan] Re: sequences with regularity for rather large n

This seems like a good solution for the stated problem. Unfortunately, 
it does not help with a related problem that I think is more common. 
This is where the terms are known from some point on, but it is not 
actually known how many earlier terms there are. This typically happens 
with sequences that are basically sets.

I too would like an example.

But just based on what you've said, I would say go for it. In your case,
almost any Editor would get the sense that you have genuinely made an
effort to ascertain what a(29) is but for the time being it's just not
possible. Let's further suppose that for n < 30 there are so many holes 
you
can't string along more than two or three consecutive known terms. The
offset of 30 makes perfect sense.

P.S. Today is Thanksgiving in the U. S., and for a few more minutes the
Sequence of the Day is

A000055 <http://oeis.org/A000055>: Number of trees with [image:
\scriptstyle n,\, n \,\ge\, 0, \,] unlabeled nodes.
   { 1, 2, 3, 6, 11, 23, 47, 106, 235, ... }  This is the sequence for 
the
example search on the front page of the OEIS 
<http://oeis.org/wiki/OEIS>.
This Thanksgiving we are thankful for, among other things, the OEIS, 
which
is an invaluable resource in many mathematical and scientific endeavors.
