%N a(n) = n^4 + 28*n^3 + 252*n^2 + 784*n + 448.
%C The product of eight positive integers shifted by 2; i.e., m * (m+2) * (m+4) * ... * (m+14) = A346515(m) can always be expressed as the difference of two squares: x^2 - y^2.
%C This sequence gives the x-values for each product. The y-values are A152691(n+7).
%C More generally, for any k, we have n * (n+k) * (n+2*k) * ... * (n+7*k) = a(n,k) = x(n,k)^2 - y(n,k)^2, where
%C x(n,k) = n^4 + 14*k*n^3 + 63*k^2*n^2 + 98*k^3*n + 28*k^4,
%C y(n,k) = 4*k^3*(2*n + 7*k).
%C A239035(n) corresponds to a(n,k) in the case k = 1, with related y(n,k) = A346376(n).
%C This sequence is y(n,k) in the case k = 2, with related y(n,k) = A152691(n+7).
