%N Array of least knight's moves to points (n,0), (n-1,1), ..., (1,n-1) on infinite chessboard.
%C The n points (n,0), (n-1,1), ..., (1,n-1) lie in a diagonal in the first quadrant. Adjoining the matching points in the other quadrants yields the square |i|+|j|=n, as in A183051. For a description of the infinite chessboard, see A065775.
%F See A065775.
