The full series should be: {1, 3, 6, 10, 12, 12, 10, 6, 3, 1}

It is nothing more than a series that increases in a certain way & then decreases in the exact opposite way. You can see this by using subtraction as follows:

3-1 = 2

6-3 = 3

10-6 = 4

12-10 = 2

12-12 = 0

12-10 = 2

10-6 = 4

6-3 = 3

3-1 = 2

Notes:

- the series pattern increases to 12 in this way: 2, 3, 4, 2

- the series pattern then decreases from 12 in the exact opposite way: 2, 4, 3, 2

- if graphed with time as the x-coordinate & each number as the y-coordinates, the full series would resemble a curve that looks similar to a hill with a flat top.
