%N Second 9-gonal (or nonagonal) numbers: a(n) = n*(7*n+5)/2.

%C This sequence is a bisection of A118277 (even part).

%C Sequence found by reading the line from 0, in the direction 0, 19... and the line from 6, in the direction 6, 39,..., in the square spiral whose vertices are the generalized 9-gonal numbers A118277. - _Omar E. Pol_, Jul 24 2012

%C The early part of this sequence is a strikingly close approximation to the early part of A100752. - _Peter Munn_, Nov 14 2019
