There are arbitrarily many pairs of integer sequences (of arbitrary origins) that coincide upto an $N$ but differ for an $n > N$. I assume, the coincidence will be considered accidentally then by default, but I may be mistaken about that. One is disadviced to draw any conclusions from coincidences of integer sequences unless its proven, that they coincide for all $n$. (Even then there may be no sensible conclusions, as I have learned here: [Equivalence of families of objects with the same counting function][1].) In any case, it is hard not to be entrapped to draw a conclusion when $N$ is very large. But what is "very large"? Thus my question: > What is the largest $N$ with two known > integer sequences coinciding upto $N$ > but differing for an $n > N$? (Can this information be captured from OEIS by an intelligent query?) **Edit**: To make things clear: I am aware of the fact that one can trivially define pairs of integer sequences which conincide for all $n$ but one single and aribitrarily large one. It should be clear that I am not interested in those. [1]: http://mathoverflow.net/questions/38551/equivalence-of-families-of-objects-with-the-same-counting-function/38592#38592
