Same as A033951 except start at 0. See example section.
Bisection of A074377. Also sequence found by reading the line from 0, in the direction 0, 22, ... and the line from 7, in the direction 7, 45, ..., in the square spiral whose vertices are the generalized 10-gonal numbers A074377. - Omar E. Pol, Jul 24 2012

FORMULA

a(n) = 3*a(n-1) - 3*a(n-2) + a(n-3) with a(0) = 0, a(1) = 7, a(2) = 22. - Philippe Deléham, Mar 26 2013
Sum_{n>=1} 1/a(n) = 4/9 + Pi/6 - log(2) = 0.2748960394827980081... . - Vaclav Kotesovec, Apr 27 2016
Sum_{n>=1} (-1)^(n+1)/a(n) = Pi/(3*sqrt(2)) + log(2)/3 - 4/9 - sqrt(2)*arcsinh(1)/3. - Amiram Eldar, Nov 28 2021
For n>0, (a(n)^2 + n)/(a(n) + n) = (4*n + 1)^2/4, a ratio of two squares. - Rick L. Shepherd, Feb 23 2022
