-- Puzzle.

--

-- Using SQL I wanted to see what happend with the following puzzle.

--

--

--

-- 1

-- 1 1

-- 2 1

-- 1 2 1 1

-- 1 1 1 2 2 1

-- 3 1 2 2 1 1

--

--

-- Question is wat is the next line?

-- And the line after that?

--

-- How does this progress when you continue?

-- For the last question I used SQL.

First line contains a 1, each next line describes the the line above.

So the first line contains one 1. (1 1).

The second line contains two 1's (2 1)

The third line contains one 2 and one 1 (1 2 1 1)

etc.

I used replaces to continue this trend, just to see what was happening. I'll post the script for that in a next episode, not to give away part of the 'knowledge'. I used some of the kwowledge to build the solution. I would like to see other solutions, often others can come up with a far more elegant (or more efficient or both) solutions.

Although posts not always contain have a usable solution, I always learn from the anwsers, often showing solution methods and techniques which open my mind.
