Our fifth example is:
(9) |
Let's rewrite it in the following form:
(10) |
The next is 18 + 16.
This would be 34.
Now we can reconstruct the rule
(11) |
The answer is right and the rule is right,
but there exist a more simple form:
(12) |
We see that the idea coming first may be not simplest solution.
It my be wrong one too.
Let's consider the sixth sequence
(13) |
We can use the solution we already have and write 10.
This variant is not the one possible.
Other solution is 9:
(14) |
If there exist one solution, one other may exist too. In many cases the consequences may be quite different. This is the problem of a selection.
