12
14 The sequence of star numbers 1, 13, 37, 73, 121, etc, 6*i*(i-1)+1, also
15 called the centred 12-gonals.

18 See "FUNCTIONS" in Math::NumSeq for behaviour common to all sequence
19 classes.
20
21 "$seq = Math::NumSeq::StarNumbers->new ()"
22 Create and return a new sequence object.
23
24 Random Access
25 "$value = $seq->ith($i)"
26 Return "6*$i*($i-1)+1".
27
28 "$bool = $seq->pred($value)"
29 Return true if $value is of the form 6*i*(i-1)+1 for some i.
30
31 "$i = $seq->value_to_i_floor($value)"
32 "$i = $seq->value_to_i_estimate($value)"
33 Return the i for the star number <= $value.
