Permutation of the natural numbers.
a(n) is a pairing function: a function that reversibly maps Z^{+} x Z^{+} onto Z^{+}, where Z^{+} is the set of integer positive numbers.
Call a "layer" a pair of sides of square from T(1,n) to T(n,n) and from T(n,n) to T(n,1). This sequence is A188568 as table read layer by layer clockwise.
The same table A188568 read by boustrophedon ("ox-plowing") method - layer clockwise, layer counterclockwise and so on - is A064790. - Boris Putievskiy, Mar 14 2013

FORMULA

a(n)=(i+j-1)*(i+j-2)/2+j, where
i=mod(t;2)*min{t; n - (t - 1)^2} + mod(t + 1; 2)*min{t; t^2 - n + 1}
j=mod(t;2)*min{t; t^2 - n + 1} + mod(t + 1; 2)*min{t; n - (t - 1)^2},
t=int(math.sqrt(n-1))+1.

EXAMPLE
|
From Boris Putievskiy, Mar 14 2013: (Start)
The start of the sequence as table:
1....2...6...7..15..16..28...
3....5...9..12..20..23..35...
4....8..13..18..26..31..43...
10..14..19..25..33..40..52...
11..17..24..32..41..50..62...
21..27..34..42..51..61..73...
22..30..39..49..60..72..85...
. . .
The start of the sequence as triangular array read by rows:
1;
2,5,3;
6,9,13,8,4;
7,12,18,25,19,14,10;
15,20,26,33,41,32,24,17,11;
16,23,31,40,50,61,51,42,34,27,21;
28,35,43,52,62,73,85,72,60,49,39,30,22;
. . .
Row number r contains 2*r-1 numbers. (End)
