131112211
1131112211
11131112211
11114131112211
or more 3´s
too complex for saturday morning
wrong
In mathematics, the look-and-say sequence is the sequence of integers beginning as follows:
1, 11, 21, 1211, 111221, 312211, 13112221, 1113213211, ...
1
11
21
1211
111221

What is the next number?
13112221,1113213211, etc
For those who don't understand how: at 1st glance I thought it was the Fibonacci sequence but noep!lol
It's just a number generated from the previous number of the sequence by reading off the digits of the previous member, counting the number of digits in groups of the same digit.
For example:
1 is read off as "one 1" or 11.
11 is read off as "two 1s" or 21.
21 is read off as "one 2, then one 1" or 1211.
1211 is read off as "one 1, one 2, then two 1s" or 111221 etc.

Okay... I guess that wasn't as challenging as I thought --- sooo try this one - (no replies if you already answered please).
One holds it, two can share it, three cannot keep it? What is it?
