Puzzled ...

Mosey over to today's (10th October) Foxtrot strip ... what's the sequence being called out by Marcus in the last panel? The answer isn't up on Bill Amend's website yet ...

Not in a zillion years could I have gotten that! Did you google the sequence?

Also, Kartik, I am disappointed you didn't post the solution before Nikhil. Some PhD in Maths you're doing!

point 1: it is a phd in applied mathematics (i work with statistical mechanics).point 2: i have never heard of perrin numbers before and it isn't something worth studying.point 3: mathematics is rather vast.point 4: i have better things to do with my time.
