Oct 26, 2017 at 17:10 comment added aditsu quit because SE is EVIL Yes it does: repeat 2,2 once → 2,2,2,2, repeat again → 2,2,2,2,2,2, etc. There's absolutely no way to get a 1 from repeating 2,2. The sequence you get is always unique.
Oct 26, 2017 at 17:09 comment added Wheat Wizard @aditsu 2,2 does not uniquely determine any sequence, its part of both of the sequences.

Oct 26, 2017 at 17:04 comment added aditsu quit because SE is EVIL 2,2 uniquely determines the …2,2,2,2… sequence (1-juggler) and does NOT determine the …2,2,1,2,2,1… sequence (2-juggler).
Oct 26, 2017 at 17:01 comment added Wheat Wizard @aditsu No your idea is not sufficient, for example 2,2 when repeated infinitely makes a valid sequence but it could also be a part of ... 2,2,1,2,2,1,2,2,1 ... thus it doesn't uniquely determine a sequence.
Oct 26, 2017 at 16:56 comment added aditsu quit because SE is EVIL Except we don't really understand what it means... Btw, is my idea acceptable as an output choice? In fact.. the additional input thing might end up being easier.
Oct 26, 2017 at 16:53 comment added Wheat Wizard @aditsu I choose the definition there very carefully, it's a little more lenient in someways and stricter than others than the definition you suggest. I would like to make it as clear as possible but that is the idea I want to use.
Oct 26, 2017 at 16:48 comment added aditsu quit because SE is EVIL I also think "uniquely determines the sequence" is a bit confusing, even after your explanation. How about outputting a subsection that can be repeated indefinitely both ways to construct the actual sequence? Like the repetend of a rational number.
Oct 26, 2017 at 16:17 comment added Wheat Wizard @xnor It means that given the subsection you can use the property to derive all the other members of the sequence, for example if you know 2,2,1 is in the sequence you can find every other member. Basically it means that it is a subsection that only exists in one sequence with the property.
Oct 26, 2017 at 16:15 comment added Wheat Wizard @Zgarb Sorry I made another mistake in the equation TFeld is right it should be minus. I must be off it today or something...

Oct 26, 2017 at 16:05 comment added TFeld It seems the sequnces follow a(n+1) = a(n-a(n)), and not +
Oct 26, 2017 at 16:04 comment added xnor What does "with the given property uniquely determines the sequence" mean?
Oct 26, 2017 at 15:50 comment added Wheat Wizard @Steadybox Sure that sounds fine. Probably not the easiest way to do it though.

Oct 26, 2017 at 15:41 comment added Steadybox @WheatWizard How about a list into which values are indefinitely appended and prepended and after each addition the list is printed?

Oct 26, 2017 at 15:33 comment added Wheat Wizard @Mr.Xcoder Normally I would say yes, but since these sequences are infinite in both directions, I have to hesitantly say no. (If you offer a compelling argument I could easily change my mind on this) If you can find a way to print in both directions that would be fine.
Oct 26, 2017 at 15:31 comment added Mr. Xcoder Are we allowed to print the sequence indefinitely?
