What is the next integer: 1,2,5,9,10,22...?

There is an answer!

Update:

Wow! Everyone is smarter than I thought! Yes, the answer I was looking for was 25,26,110,998 etc etc. I was just messing around, wondered if any one could answer it!

Apparantly its: "is the smallest k such that n divides the concatenation of numbers from (n+1) to (n+k), where (n+1) is on the most significant side."

    1,2,5,9,10,22, 35 ,36,192,349....

    2-1=1

    5-2=3

    9-5=4

    10-9=1

    22-10=12

    and 3*4=12

    so the next diffrence between 2 consecutive no.'s should be 13 and then 1 and then 12*13 = 156, and then 157..... so on and so forth
