I'm guessing that the key here is 'finite'. However there are some
infinite sequences that have absolutely no use, and contain no
information so they're safe to calculate. For example a series of '1's
seperated by an ever-increasing number of '0's:
1010010001000010000010000001...
Here's another one - anyone want to guess what it is? No prizes, but a
warm fuzzy feeling of accomplishment :>
1101110010111011110001001101010111100110111101111...
If you don't want to spoil it for anyone, give your answer as the next
20 or so bits of the sequence.
