%N Sequence of distinct least squares such that the arithmetic mean of the first n squares is also a square.

%F a(n) = A141391(n)^2

%e a(1) = 1.

%e a(2) is the smallest unused square such that (a(2)+a(1))/2 is a square. So, a(2) = 49.

%e a(3) is the smallest unused square such that (a(3)+a(2)+a(1))/3 is a square. So, a(3) = 25.

%e ...and so on.
