COMMENTS
| Sequence allows us to find X values of the equation: X + (X + 3)^2 + (X + 6)^3 = Y^2. To prove that X = n^2 + 6n: Y^2 = X + (X + 3)^2 + (X + 6)^3 = X^3 + 19*X^2 + 115X + 225 = (X + 9)(X^2 + 10X + 25) = (X + 9)*(X + 5)^2 it means: (X + 9) must be a perfect square, so X = k^2 - 9 with k>=3. we can put: k = n + 3, which gives: X = n^2 + 6n and Y = (n + 3)(n^2 + 6n + 5). - Mohamed Bouhamida (bhmd95(AT)yahoo.fr), Nov 12 2007
Number of units of a(n) belongs to a periodic sequence: 0, 7, 6, 7, 0, 5, 2, 1, 2, 5. [From Mohamed Bouhamida (bhmd95(AT)yahoo.fr), Sep 04 2009]
