Tricky Maths Challenge.

I saw this problem in a book and it has baffled me !

Construct two series of numbers beginning just above zero. Increment both the series successively such that the difference between the series total never exceeds a predetermined parameter eg 10.

I am sure I used to be able to do this but I have completely forgotten it.

It could give us lots of fun.

Look forward to seeing your solutions.

Thanks.
