A186274
Adjusted joint rank sequence of (f(i)) and (g(j)) with f(i) before g(j) when f(i)=g(j), where f and g are the triangular numbers and octagonal numbers. Complement of A186159.

EXAMPLE
First, write the triangular and octagonal numbers:
1..3..6.....10..15..21..28
1........8..........21......
Then replace each by its rank, where ties are settled by ranking the triangular number before the octagonal:
a=(1,3,4,6,7,8,10,11,13,...)=A186159.
b=(2,5,9,12,15,19,22,26,...)=A186274.
