COMMENTS

Enter 1 into center position of the spiral. Repeat: Go to next position of the spiral and enter into that position the sum of the numbers in those already filled positions that are horizontally, vertically or diagonally adjacent to it.

Clockwise and counterclockwise construction of the spiral result in the same sequence.
