Just a thought (haven't yet but just skimmed that article, but this
came to my mind immediately): What if, instead of limiting the search
space to a fixed set of the most common mathematical operators (+, x,
sin, etc) in the constructed unary/binary-trees, one could construct
similar expressions from any OEIS sequences, tables, and their
transformations?  As we know, one-dimensional sequences can be viewed
as N -> Z functions (unary operators), and square arrays as N x N -> Z
functions (dyadic operators).
This is one of the reasons I am for long b-files (until we get
reliable and fast on-the-fly generation of the terms for most
sequences, that is).

Best regards,

Antti
