extra credit


I had my last exam yesterday (note: not my final, just the last exam... totally different) And at the very end there was an extra credit question worth 4 points, which was more than some of the real problems were worth. So I really wanted to get it, but I did not :( Now that I know what the answer is, I will see if you guys can get it! But no cheating! No google searches and whatnot, just see if you can figure it out or not :)

What are the next three terms in this sequence?
1, 11, 21, 1211, 111221, 312211,...


guess away! When I figured it out last night I thought it was a really clever riddle/problem :)

I like number riddles too! Sadly, I'm terrible at them. ;)
