Abstract
Methods and arrangements for providing a compressed representation of a number sequence. An input number sequence is received, as is a stored number sequence. The input number sequence is compared to the stored number sequence. The comparing includes determining a set of coefficients corresponding to the input number sequence, via solving at least one algebraic equation, the at least one algebraic equation comprising at least one of: an arithmetic equation, and an exponential equation. The comparing further includes applying at least one test to determine whether the set of coefficients identifies at least a portion of the stored number sequence as matching the entire input number sequence.
