%C Also numerators of an infinite series which is equal to pi, if the denominators are the natural numbers A000027, for example: pi = 1/1 + 1/2 + 1/3 + 1/4 - 1/5 + 1/6 + 1/7 + 1/8 + 1/9 - 1/10 + 1/11 + 1/12 - 1/13 + 1/14 ... = 3.14159263... This remarkable result is due to Leonhard Euler. For another version see A209662.

%F Completely multiplicative with a(p) = -1 for p mod 4 = 1, a(p) = 1 otherwise. - _Andrew Howroyd_, Aug 04 2018

%e For n = 10 we have that the 10th row of triangle A207338 is [2, -5] therefore a(10) = 2*(-5)/10 = -1.

%o (PARI) a(n)={my(f=factor(n)); prod(i=1, #f~, my([p,e]=f[i,]); if(p%4==1, -1, 1)^e)} \\ _Andrew Howroyd_, Aug 04 2018

%Y Row products of triangle A207338 divided by n. Absolute values give A000012.
