COMMENTS

Square root of A023110(n).

For the first 4 terms, the square has only one digit, but in analogy to the sequences in other bases (A204502, A204512,  A204514, A204516, A204518, A204520, A004275, A055793, A055792), it is understood that deleting this digit yields 0.

FORMULA

Appears to satisfy: a(n)=38a(n-7)-a(n-14) which would require a(-k) to look like 3, 2, 1, 4, 7, 13, 16, 57, 38, 19, 136, ... for k>0. - Henry Bottomley (se16(AT)btinternet.com), May 08 2001

EXAMPLE

364813^2 = 133088524969, 115364^2 = 13308852496

MAPLE

for i from 1 to 150000 do if (floor(sqrt(10 * i^2 + 9)) > floor(sqrt(10 * i^2))) then print(floor(sqrt(10 * i^2 + 9))) end if end do;
