Find two consecutive odd integers, given the first odd integer is x.
If "x" is the 1st "x+2" would be the next consecutive.
---
However, odd integers are all 1 more or 1 less than even
integers, and even integers are always a multiple of 2.
---
So the way to symbolize 2 consecutive odd integers could be
2x-1,2x+1
---
or
----
2x+1, 2x+3
---
etc.
