COMMENTS
Let L = [a_1, a_2, …, a_n] be a list of size n of real numbers in [0, 1[.
COMMENTS
Then, every term a_i of L is inserting one by one in the resulting list in position k, such as (k - 1)/i <= a_i < k/i.

Romain Malécot: I think the "²" should not be removed since it is part of the name of the tournament which is written that way, not with "2" or "^2".
02:57
Romain Malécot: I had added the unkn keyword because almost nothing is known about this sequence (except the first terms).

Gaston's algorithm was introduced in the eight problem of the 2026 edition of the TFJM² (French Tournament of Young Mathematicians) (see links).

Hugo Pfoertner: How can we verify that the given terms are correct? Is the tournament finished or still ongoing? If the tournament is not yet over, no results should be published in OEIS. If it is finished, however, the question is: Is there a published solution, or can the solution method be described here in such a way that OEIS users can understand it? Is there a program for the part of the problem described here (question 8 of problem 8, "Tri trop rapide")?
