given one term, to find the next one - follow these steps
\n" ); document.write( "1) Divide the first number by 2
\n" ); document.write( "2) Add one
\n" ); document.write( "3) Square
\n" ); document.write( "4) Multiply 2\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "So, given 4:
\n" ); document.write( "divide by 2 to get 2
\n" ); document.write( "Add 1 to get 3
\n" ); document.write( "Square to get 9
\n" ); document.write( "Multiply by 2 to get 18\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Given 200:
\n" ); document.write( "1) 200/2 = 100
\n" ); document.write( "2) 100+1 = 101
\n" ); document.write( "3) 101^1 = 10201
\n" ); document.write( "4) Mult by 2 to get 20402\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "I know, clunky, but it holds for those 4 numbers anyway
\n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "
