My house is has two floors and there are fourteen stairs from the first to the second. I must always take seven steps or less to go up them. Usually, I just do the obvious and go up them like so:
2,2,2,2,2,2,2
Sometimes, I add in a few "big" steps, like so:
2,2,3,2,2,3
or
2,2,2,2,2,4
I do this because I know that at the end of my life, I will measure the total number of stairs climbed and the total number of steps taken (on stairs). Dividing those two will give the average number of stairs climbed per step taken, and that number must be greater than or equal to two. So, throwing in larger steps, occasionally, balances out the times earlier in life when I may have been lazy or unaware of this impending calculation.
