I think this should be '''S(n) is defined as the nth integer in the sequence of positive integers not present in R(n)'''. If S(n) is itself a sequence then R(n) would be a sequence, but the example R(n) values suggest that R is a sequence and R(n) is an integer from that sequence. --[[User:Rdm|Rdm]] 16:34, 22 October 2011 (UTC)
 
:Hmm. You're right, but then I can't help but think that S(n) can stand for both an integer given a ''particular'' value of n, or the sequence when thinking of n as being an arbitrary value? It seems to me that it can be either or both, but either way, would you go further and say that you could not determine the meaning of the sentence?
 
:I'm inclined to leave it as-is. --[[User:Paddy3118|Paddy3118]] 17:44, 22 October 2011 (UTC)
