My maths sucks since I got old :(

(That's a lie - It's always sucked) :rofl:

Jake:
Impressive, Perspective! See, Rob, you should stop by more often

Just out of interest, what was your approach, or was it obvious?

Well, ignoring the shift in the input to output (from 14 to 69 etc..), you basically just want to output a number 4 times, then increase that number by 4. So integer division (by 4) gives you the "epoch" you're at (how many times have I incremented by 4). Multiply that by 4 and you get the factor you should add. Then you add the two shifts, input starting at 14 and output starting at 69.

Mostly for being on esink and seeing the question that quickly. ;)

Yeah, the timing was pretty good. I just happened to have stopped by for my (second) morning coffee. And since Micah's update was light I had some extra time on my hands :D

Glad I could free up some time for you.
