Hi Bob,
Many thanks for your excellent reply.
Your coding for lists 1,2,3 is exactly what I want.
And your statement - "Apparently you want list2 to consist of the members
of list1 that are
integer multiples of 24 rather than the integers in list1/24." is correct.
But I tried changing the input values from the example given
>From 24 + (15*n1) to 24 + (13*n1) .....15 to 13
>From 12 + (3*n2) to 12 + (7*n2) .....3 to 7
This immediately caused me error messages, some of which I was able to
correct by expanding the list range of the Take function.
But I was unable to calculate the last part for list3 :-
list1 = Table[24 + (13*n1), {n1, 2000}];
list2 = Take[Select[list1, IntegerQ[#/24] &], 40];
list3 = n2 /.
Solve[{12 + (7*n2) == #, Element[n2, Integers]}, n2][[1]] & /@
list2
Hopefully the result should look something like :-
{1272, 3456, 5640, 7824, 10008, 12192}
These values above being the first & then following repetitions thereafter
of equal points of repetitions of n1 & n2 in list2 & list3 respectively.
Please could you rewrite the enclosed code so that :-
(i) The above new values work & provide a similar result to that which I
have shown.
(ii) Also, if possible, allow in the rewrite the flexibility within the
function to accept much larger & challenging input values for list1 & 2.
This would include a domain allowance relative to the size of input values
as in this case its values are 13 & 7, but they could be integer values of
127 & 56 for list1 & list3 respectively.
(Note higher value first.) Actually I will probably want to use much much
higher values later.
Ideally I am only looking for about 6 elements in the final answer list
like - {1272, 3456, 5640, 7824, 10008, 12192}
Many thanks for your help & attention.
Really appreciated.
Best regards,
Lea...
