Like your thinking Zara but...
ääääääääääää... <annoying game-show buzzing sound>
...not the answer I'm looking for.
1. The series is in base 10; so not 10, 11, 12...
2. I prepped Steve by mentioning his apparent bent for maths. It would
be underhanded of me to then present a series that was
alphabetically based. Also using "nul" (or "nil") instead of "zero"
is not really playing fair; so not "nul, one, two, six, ten" (you
forgot that one :-)
3. The fibonacci series extends to the left of zero as well as to the
right, thus - ...5 -3 2 -1 1 0 1 1 2 3 5... For the '0' of my
series to be generated in this manner requires a previous term
of '0' and prior to that -1 and so on (see example below).
"Mine": ...4 1 -2 0 -1 0 0 1 2 4 7 12...
Fibon.: ...5 -3 2 -1 1 0 1 1 2 3 5 8...
My series begins at '0', there are no previous terms that can
exist. However, it is infinite and the fourth term is a little
unexpected.
Have another go.
