    Is it possible?

    So I have like 10 or so numbers and I need to find out their algorithm, their algorithm is the same for all, so it there a software or so to find out the algorithm?
    I want to know the algorithm like lets say:-
    1234

    So 4 instance We take
    1st+2nd=3rd
    1 + 2 = 3
    then
    4th-3rd=1st
    4 - 3 = 1
    So with that algorithm we can make this number too:
    1345

    I want to know that, is it possible?
    Thanks

    Short answer: yes.

    Long answer: there are infinitely many algorithms for any particular sequence. Is the goal to find the one the creator had in mind, or just one that will work?

    Well I would like to know the algorithm of the sequence so then I will be able to follow that algorithm to create more like that sequence! Well you might think that im trying to crack a program, well no, thats not it coz I already have 10 or so numbers of this sequence I want to know the algorithm and create my own sequences with that algorithm! if it is possible how?
    Thanks

    With infinitely many algorithms possible for a given sequence, there is no way to pick "the one" that generated the sequence.

    Hmm so in other words there are no progrms that can do this? Well .. then its k! because its hard to find the algorithm of a 16-Digit number!!! manually!!

    Why not invent your own?

    You crazy? how would I do that? Create a program to find an algorithm of a sequence? WEW that would be a g8 thing but looool it requires too much knowledge!!
