    Sequence
AI Thread Summary
The discussion revolves around a numerical sequence that initially appears cryptic but is revealed to be a well-known sequence derived from the digits of π (pi). Participants engage in guessing the next number in the sequence, which is determined by adding 1 to each digit of the original sequence. The answer to the sequence is identified as 5. The conversation also touches on the challenge of making the problem more complex and includes some off-topic remarks about life priorities, but the main focus remains on the mathematical sequence and its connection to π.

What comes next?

2,0,3,0,4,8,1,5,4,2,4,7,8,6,8,2,1,2,7,3,...

That's boring! I'll hand out a hint, though: it's a generally well known sequence in disguise, but that sequence is not generally known as a sequence...

Answer in white Add 1 to each digit. Easy as pie
 
Jimmysnyder got it. :D Good job... again :P !
 
I should have noted that the answer is 5.

You could have made the problem more difficult by giving more information. What is the next number in this sequence?

2,0,3,0,4,8,1,5,4,2,4,7,8,6,8,2,1,2,7,3,5,1,5,3,2,2,7,2,1,6,8,4,...

Well, I tried to avoid any zeros, heh. I guess the answer could be -1, but that really doesn't seem quite right. Maybe 9?
 
how about

who gives a sh*t!

woody and survival are the
only important things in Life.
 
Here is another

zero

zero implies all other numbers.
You can't miss with my answer.
ho ho ho

Here is the original sequence:
2,0,3,0,4,8,1,5,4,2,4,7,8,6,8,2,1,2,7,3,...
Here is the same sequence obtained by adding 1 to each digit.
3,1,4,1,5,9,2,6,5,3,5,8,9,7,9,3,2,3,8,4,...
Note the connection between this sequence and the number \pi.
