COMMENTS

Write 0,1,2,3,4,... in a triangular spiral, then a(n) is the sequence found by reading the line from 0 in the direction 0,1,... - Floor van Lamoen (fvlamoen(AT)hotmail.com), Jul 21 2001. The spiral begins:

......15

....16..14

..17..3...13

18..4...2...12

..5...0...1...11

6...7...8...9...10

(1), (4+7), (7+10+13), (10+13+16+19), ... - Jon Perry (perry(AT)globalnet.co.uk), Sep 10 2004

This sequence does not contain any triangular numbers other than 0 and 1. See A188892. - T. D. Noe, Apr 13 2011
