As an aside: It shouldn't be too bad to write a "generator" for the
geometric series, so that we can pick out the terms on-demand.

'twos' is a representation of the geometric series; we can then pick
out the elements one at a time:

>>> twos.next()
1
>>> twos.next()
2
>>> twos.next()
4
>>> twos.next()
8
>>> twos.next()
16
>>> twos.next()
32
>>> twos.next()
64
