    Guys, do a search and you'll find the answer if you don't already know it like The Preacher does.

    It's just a numbers sequencing problem. Think logically and you'll see.


    I'll give you a hint, it's known as Conway Sequence.

    The integer sequence beginning with a single digit in which the next term is obtained by describing the previous term. Starting with 1, the sequence would be defined by "1, one 1, two 1s, one 2 one 1," etc., and the result is 1, 11, 21, 1211, 111221, 312211, 13112221, 1113213211

    Thats the explanation, i think.
