COMMENTS

An interleaved sequence of pyramidal and polygonal numbers: a(2n)= A006527(n+1), a(2n+1)=A000330(n+1) - Paul Barry (pbarry(AT)wit.ie), Mar 17 2003

Contribution from Ramasamy Chandramouli (thedavinci(AT)gmail.com), Jan 17 2009: a(n) is also the number of solutions to the equation XOR(x1, x2, ..., xn) = 0 such that each xi is a 2-bit binary number and xi >= xj for i >= j. For example, a(2) = 4 since (x1, x2) = { (00, 00), (01, 01), (10, 10), (11, 11) }.

These are also the "spreading numbers" alpha_4(n). See Babcock et al. for precise definition.
