This is really aimed at Robert G.

Does your program lookfor dodecas either side one less n and one greater n - for example if I am searching for 59, isnt that going to overlap with 58 and 60? Shoudl we not be tailoring appropriately, though looking only at k between, in this instance, 2^58 and 2^59, when searching for 59's?

Regards
