Thanks After having read different answers to this problem, I noticed that the simplest way to get the result somehow evaded the respectable mathgroupers. Here it is: In[1]:= list={2, 1, 1, 1, 1, 2, 1, 2, 1, 1, 1, 2, 2, 1, 1, 3, 1, 1, 2, 1, 2, 1, 2, 1, 1, 1, 1, 2, 1, 2, 1, 3, 1, 2, 2, 1, 2, 1, 2, 3, 2, 4, 1, 1, 1, 1, 2, 1, 1, 1, 1, 2, 2, 2, 1, 2, 1, 2, 3, 2, 2, 2, 1, 2, 1, 2, 2, 2, 2, 2, 2, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 2, 2, 2, 1}; In[2]:= 5-list Out[2]= {3, 4, 4, 4, 4, 3, 4, 3, 4, 4, 4, 3, 3, 4, 4, 2, 4, 4, 3, 4, 3, 4, 3, 4, 4, 4, 4, 3, 4, 3, 4, 2, 4, 3, 3, 4, 3, 4, 3, 2, 3, 1, 4, 4, 4, 4, 3, 4, 4, 4, 4, 3, 3, 3, 4, 3, 4, 3, 2, 3, 3, 3, 4, 3, 4, 3, 3, 3, 3, 3, 3, 4, 4, 4, 4, 4, 4, 3, 3, 3, 4} Regards, Gennady. ==== [MESSAGE SEPARATOR] ====
