I have discovered an interesting mathematics sequence, what do I do next?
Ok so I was playing with some numbers then figured out a very interesting sequence. Would there be an organization or something that would be interested in it? What's it called, if any.

Well, first you need to find out if someone else hasn't already found that same sequence. The likelihood of you finding a completely new mathematical sequence that has anything of interest to it is probably very low, since people have been studying and looking for these things for thousands of years.
But lets say you actually DID find something new. The best thing to do is to write a paper about your discovery, have it checked my mathematicians, and then have it published by a respected journal. Then it's official, and it can be named after you.
