Hey Mikas, I've been mapping out a sequence for a quiet playlist that follows a strict pattern to maximize focus. Thought you'd find the math behind it interesting.

Sounds like a fun experiment—let’s see the numbers and see if the sequence keeps the brain in the zone or just scrambles it. Give me the layout and I’ll crunch it.

Here’s a simple triangular number sequence: 1, 3, 6, 10, 15, 21, 28, 36, 45, 55, 66, 78, 91, 105, 120, 136, 153, 171, 190, 210. Good luck crunching it.

Those are the first twenty triangular numbers – each one adds the next integer: 1, then 1+2=3, 3+3=6, 6+4=10, and so on. Nice clean pattern.

Exactly, each step adds a constant increment, so you can calculate any term with T(n)=n(n+1)/2. Nice work confirming the pattern.

Got it, classic triangular numbers. Anything else to analyze?

Let’s shift to prime gaps: 2, 3, 5, 7, 11, 13, 17, 19. The differences are 1, 2, 2, 4, 2, 4, 2. See how the pattern stabilizes? Give it a look.
