Here is a list of numerical sequences:




  • 1, 3, 5, 4

  • 2, 3, 5, 4

  • 3, 5, 4

  • 4

  • 5, 4

  • 6, 3, 5, 4

  • ...and so on.


(1 is 3 and 2 is 3, but 1 is not 2 and 2 is not 1. The same rule applies to every number in the sequence.)



There is a simple rule that governs these sequences. What is it?

Use spoiler tags in your answer, please.

          The rule is...




          The next number in the sequence is the number of characters in the previous number when spelled out.
          Each of the sequences end on 4 because it has 4 characters and the sequence is then essentially eternal.




          Let's take a look at the first sequence:




          1: 'o' + 'n' + 'e' = 3
          3: 't' + 'h' + 'r' + 'e' + 'e' = 5
          5: 'f' + 'i' + 'v' + 'e' = 4
          And 4 goes on forever so it is terminal.
