=head1 NAME

Math::NumSeq::StarNumbers -- star numbers 6*i*(i-1)+1

=head1 SYNOPSIS

 use Math::NumSeq::StarNumbers;
 my $seq = Math::NumSeq::StarNumbers->new;
 my ($i, $value) = $seq->next;

=head1 DESCRIPTION

The sequence of star numbers 1, 13, 37, 73, 121, etc, 6*i*(i-1)+1, also
called the centred 12-gonals.

=head1 FUNCTIONS

See L<Math::NumSeq/FUNCTIONS> for behaviour common to all sequence classes.

=over 4

=item C<$seq = Math::NumSeq::StarNumbers-E<gt>new ()>

Create and return a new sequence object.

=back

=head2 Random Access

=over

=item C<$value = $seq-E<gt>ith($i)>

Return C<6*$i*($i-1)+1>.

=item C<$bool = $seq-E<gt>pred($value)>

Return true if C<$value> is of the form 6*i*(i-1)+1 for some i.

=item C<$i = $seq-E<gt>value_to_i_floor($value)>

=item C<$i = $seq-E<gt>value_to_i_estimate($value)>

Return the i for the star number E<lt>= $value.
