12 my ($i, $value) = $seq->next;

15 This sequence is the happy numbers which are the numbers eventually
16 reaching 1 on repeatedly taking the sum of the squares of the digits.
17
18 1, 7, 10, 13, 19, 23, ...
19 starting i=1
20
21 For example 23 is a happy number because the sum of squares of its
22 digits (ie. 2 and 3) is 2*2+3*3=13, then the same sum of squares again
23 1*1+3*3=10, then 1*1+0*0=1 reaches 1.
24
25 In decimal it can be shown that for a non-zero starting point this
26 procedure always reaches either 1 or the cycle 4,16,37,58,89,145,42,20.
27 The values which reach 1 are called happy numbers.
28
29 An optional "radix" parameter can select a base other than decimal.
30 Base 2 and base 4 are not very interesting since for them every number
31 except 0 is happy.
32
34 See "FUNCTIONS" in Math::NumSeq for behaviour common to all sequence
35 classes.
36
37 "$seq = Math::NumSeq::HappyNumbers->new ()"
38 "$seq = Math::NumSeq::HappyNumbers->new (radix => $r)"
39 Create and return a new sequence object.
40
41 "$bool = $seq->pred($value)"
42 Return true if $value is a happy number, meaning repeated sum of
43 squares of its digits reaches 1.
