I’ve got a couple of graduations to attend over the next few days. It’s the season, you know.
Anyway, at the moment I am sitting in the ceremony for Rideau Valley Middle School, where they’re calling the graduates to the stage. Being mathematically minded, I’ve noted that the classes are numbered 8-1, 8-2, 8-4, 8-6, and 8-8. It’s not a geometric sequence, nor is it a fibonacci sequence. What’s the algorithm to generate this sequence?
Alec Saunders is the Vice President of Developer Relations for BlackBerry make Research in Motion. This is his personal blog, with his personal viewpoints. Prior to this Alec was the CEO and co-founder of Calliflower — the easiest way to hold a meeting, online, on a conference call, or on the go. A double-decade veteran of product management and marketing, he spent nine years at Microsoft where he helped launch Windows 95, the first two versions of Internet Explorer, the Universal Plug and Play initiative, the push into home markets, opt-in email marketing and what might well go down in history as the very first direct email list ever.
