Re: Math problem
Here is another solution. The patern appears to be 2^x-1. I would suspect that the next solution is at 63, but 31 took long enough to prove and my algorythm uses prime numbers with the mod function to find matches, so I don't want to look up another 32 prime numbers to make it that far.
N=31
