[seqfan] Re: Finite sequence?

[jnthn stdhr]

Hans,

Thank you for pointing out the multiple pairs.  Later today I will modify
my program to check for multiple pairs and report.

Also, thank you for the Mathematica test.  I have coded an algorithm using
Python (for its built-in big num capabilities) that produces the full
triangle A008284(10,000) in about 3 minutes.  As a test of correctness I
totaled row 10,000 and compared the result to the value of P(10,000) shown
on the Wikipedia page for partitions and its begining and ending parts
match.  I assume my method is novel, but who knows.  Any suggestions for
how I should go about making this algorithm known?  Although it's rather
simple, it's in a quick-and-dirty state and needs refinement, but I am
willing to post it here for review.
