A186342 Adjusted joint rank sequence of (f(i)) and (g(j)) with f(i) before g(j) when f(i)=g(j), where f and g are the pentagonal numbers and the octagonal numbers. Complement of A186343.

%N A186342 Adjusted joint rank sequence of (f(i)) and (g(j)) with f(i) before g(j) when f(i)=g(j), where f and g are the pentagonal numbers and the octagonal numbers.  Complement of A186343.
%C A186342 See A186219 for a discussion of adjusted joint rank sequences.
%e A186342 First, write
%e A186342 1..5...12....22..35..... (pentagonal)
%e A186342 1....8....21........40.. (octagonal)
%e A186342 Then replace each number by its rank, where ties are settled by ranking the pentagonal number before the octagonal:
%e A186342 a=(1,3,5,7,8,10,12,13,15,...)=A186342
%e A186342 b=(2,4,6,9,11,14,16,19,21,...)=A186343.
