+Task 2: Linear Recurrence of Second Order
+Submitted by: Jorg Sommrey
+
+You are given an array @a of five integers.
+
+Write a script to decide whether the given integers form a linear recurrence
+of second order with integer factors.
+
+A linear recurrence of second order has the form
+
+a[n] = p * a[n-2] + q * a[n-1] with n > 1
+
+where p and q must be integers.
