Not a Math problem.

Comment from student: Hi Ikleyn, Why do you say it is not a math problem? I generated these numbers by a combination
of counting and addition. Thanks, Dan

My response :

Dan,

Reading thoughts from your head and/or guessing the algorithms from your head is not a school Math problem.

P.S. I am with Math just more than 50 years, so I can distinct a Math problem from not-a-Math problem with the same certainty as
you can distinct a black cat from a white one. // Your question "Why ?" is not applicable in this case.
