==Perl 6 comment==
Hi Timtoady, I put the comment <code># Looks like you failed 2 tests of 17</code> outside the <nowiki><pre>...</pre></nowiki> block (but still in the output section) just to emphasise that it was not output printed by the program but something added in after. Or so I thought after scanning the Perl 6 source for that line as code. --[[User:Paddy3118|Paddy3118]] ([[User talk:Paddy3118|talk]]) 17:18, 4 January 2014 (UTC)

OEIS

I stuck the first five nearest integers from the series into The On-Line Encyclopedia of Integer Sequences whereupon I discovered it as series A034172 and the search for terms mentions more series. --Paddy3118 (talk) 11:02, 1 January 2014 (UTC)

range 1 to 17

Why does the reference article claim 1 to 17 when it also has 'almost integers' only up to 15? --Walterpachl (talk) 11:59, 4 January 2014 (UTC)

Why indeed? I just put it down to a hasty compilation of the page. It did point out to me that there was a task to be done though :-)

Perl 6 comment
