Ray,  That's great.

Since you've read the paper, could you
make the necessary correction to the definition of A129563,
and add a program and more terms, and a b-file?

For A228289, could you add the complement sequence?  I found the definition
confusing, so I rewrote it, hope I got it right. b-files for them both
would also be welcome.



Best regards
Neil
