COMMENTS

For n>3, the number of squares on the infinite 4-column half-strip chessboard at <=n knight moves from any fixed point on the short edge.

First differences of odd squares: a(n)=A016754(n)-A016754(n-1) for n>0. [From Reinhard Zumkeller (reinhard.zumkeller(AT)gmail.com), Nov 08 2009]

Complement of A047592; A168181(a(n)) = 0. [From Reinhard Zumkeller (reinhard.zumkeller(AT)gmail.com), Nov 30 2009]
