Michael Somos <http://oeis.org/wiki/User:Michael_Somos> (Feb 01 2004) discovered the remarkable fact that A001067 <http://oeis.org/A001067> is different from A046968 <http://oeis.org/A046968>, even though they agree for the first 573 terms.
Hey, Bernoulli(n+1)/n/(n+1) agrees with Bernoulli(n+1)/(n+1) for 1147 terms!
What's the most number of terms two OEIS sequences match for? (Not counting sequences which aren't known for sure to ever differ.)
A078608 describes two sequences which agree for 777451915729367 terms but then differ infinitely often There is an entry in the Index to the OEIS (on the OEIS wiki page) for Sequences which agree for a long time Best regards Neil Neil J.
