Problem 44339. Recaman Sequence - II

Created by Mehmet OZC

Solve Later

Take an arbitrary starting point as input and create Recaman Sequence. Then find the 1, return its index.

For example: if n = 0 (default Recaman sequence)

seq = [0 1 3 6 2];

1 is in the second place.

if n = 10;

seq = [10 9 7 4 8 3 9 2 10 1 11 22 34 21];

1 is in the 10th place

Weirdly, the code that finishes the biggest problem in 0.6 sec on my machine will not finish on the server. Is 0.6 sec too long for the server, or is it an error? I'm not clever enough to understanding this, please help.

I met the problem too. Should we use some mathematical characters of the sequence to improve our codes? I'm not quite sure.
