Talk:Dodecahedral number

I tried to edit the Properties section, for which I needed to upload a picture. Unfortunately I could not make it through all the red tape to upload the pucture and would up having to roll the edit back. Is there anywhere I can send the picture to load into this section? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Olthe3rd1 (talkcontribs) 01:08, 7 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Generating function

[edit]

What's the significance of the generating function mentioned at the end of the article? The function given near the beginning of the article produces the sequence of dodecahedral numbers (because n=0, 1, 2, 3, 4, ... results in 0, 1, 20, 84, 220, ... as expected), but the generating function for x=0, 1, 2, 3, 4, ... produces the values 0, undefined, 146, 26.0625, 11.1111, ..., which don't have any obvious connection to dodecahedral numbers.
