You can create a formula that will provide any number of additional elements to any sequence of numbers. Any sequence of

real numbers uniquely defines a polynomial function of degree

after creating a one-to-one correspondence with the elements of the sequence and the first

either positive or non-negative integers.

I'm not saying or implying that it is always an easy task. In the first case you would need to solve a 15 by 15 system of linear equations to get the coefficients of a 14th degree polynomial function. The other one is worse.
